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.

Why did President Truman order an invasion of North Korea, and what was the outcome?
kotykmax [81]

As a result of World War II, Korea was liberated from Japan and divided in two: Communist North Korea (supported by the Soviet Union), and South Korea (supported by the US).

In 1950, Kim II Sung, the leader of North Korea, invaded South Korea in order to unify both countries under his command. In response to this invasion, President Truman ordered the US forces to aid its ally and reject North Korea advances.

Even when the conflict resulted on military stalemate, the United States proved the ideals of the Truman Doctrine by controlling communist invasion in the context of Cold War.
