They did not have any electors to represent them
In the Congress, there is no representative from Washington D.C despite the fact that it has more than the required number of residents living in Washington D.C. This is also because Washington D.C used to be a District of Columbia. Aside from that, the Washington D.C used to be the home of many African-Americans in the United States. In the 1801, the people were given the rights under the representation of Maryland or Virginia but were stopped because of the Organic Acts. It had been a struggle for the Americans living in the United States.

zysi [14]

The earliest Civil War skirmishes in northwestern Virginia resulted in Virginia becoming the capital city of the Confederacy. Thus, option A is correct.

<h3>What is the result of the Civil war?</h3>

After four terrible years of Civil war, the United States conquered the Confederate States. When Virginia seceded, the Confederate administration relocated the capital to Richmond and Virginia, the South's second-largest city.

In the end, the rebellious states were readmitted to the Union, and slavery was abolished nationwide. While it is best recognized as the political capital of the South, Richmond evolved as a city throughout the war from an agrarian hamlet to an industrial powerhouse.

Therefore, Richmond profaned in ashes at the end of the Civil war's turbulent four-year era, a metropolis destroyed by war.

Therefore, option A is correct.
