George Washington selected the site because of its central location
Explanation:
- Unlike the deeply divided Washington of today, the founding of the US capital in Washington DC in 1790 was based on political compromise.
- Alexander Hamilton and the Northern States wanted the federal government to deal with the state's debts and reached an agreement with Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, who wanted a capital in the South.
- George Washington chose the exact spot on the Potomac River and the rest is history.

A rule made by the government is a law.
The drought was the very worst, ah ah
When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst
It was months, and months of back and forth, ah ah
You're still all over me like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore
Hung my head, as I lost the war, and the sky turned black like a perfect storm
Rain came pouring down when I was drowning
That's when I could finally breathe
And by morning, gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean
There was nothing left to do, ah ah
When the butterflies turned to dust, they covered my whole room
So I punched a hole in the roof, ah ah
Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud but no one heard a thing
During Reconstruction, groups such as the Ku Klux Klan...
used violence to prevent freed people from voting.
