Type in a word or phrase to search:

Washington, D.C. (pronounced /'w????t?n di?si?/) (commonly referred to as Washington; the District; or simply D.C.) is the capital of the United States founded on July 16, 1790. Washington (the city) covers the same area as (i.e. is coterminous with) the District of Columbia and they are considered to be the same entity. The District of Columbia is located on the banks of the Potomac River and bordered by the states of Virginia to the southwest and Maryland to the northwest, northeast, and southeast. Washington has a resident population of 588,292; however, the city's population rises to over one million people during the workweek due to commuters from the surrounding suburbs. The Washington Metropolitan Area has a total population of 5.3 million, the eighth-largest in the country.

The United States Congress has supreme authority over Washington, D.C., which results in residents of the city having less self-governance than residents of the states. The District has a non-voting at-large Congressional delegate, but no senators. If Washington, D.C. were a state, it would rank last in area (behind Rhode Island), second to last in population (ahead of Wyoming), first in population density, 35th in gross state product, and first in percentage of African Americans, which would make Washington, D.C. a minority-majority state.

On July 16, 1790, the Residence Act established the District as the new permanent capital to be located on the Potomac River.[6] George Washington chose the exact site for the city and it was named in his honor on September 9, 1791.[7] The federal district was named the District of Columbia because Columbia was a poetic name for the United States used at the time.[8]

The initial plan for the "Federal District" was a diamond, measuring 10&_160;miles (16&_160;km) on each side, totaling 100&_160;square miles (259&_160;km²). As originally platted, both Maryland and Virginia ceded portions of their territory to form the District, which Congress organized into two separate counties; the County of Washington was on the north bank of the Potomac and Alexandria County was on the south bank. In 1791–92, Andrew Ellicott and Benjamin Banneker surveyed the border of the District with both Maryland and Virginia, placing boundary stones at every mile point; many of which are still standing.[9]
