Washington, D.C. was established as the permanent capital of the United States through the Residence Act of 1790, a landmark compromise shaped by Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison. Formed from land ceded by Maryland and Virginia along the Potomac River, the district was strategically positioned to unite the young nation. President George Washington personally selected the site and commissioned Pierre Charles L’Enfant to design the city that would later bear his name. Although the federal government officially moved from Philadelphia to Washington in 1800, the capital’s symbolic importance far outpaced its early physical development.
