Imbali yokuSungulwa kweSithili sase-Columbia
Phakathi ko-1776 no-1800, iCongress yadibana kwiindawo ezahlukeneyo. Umgaqo-siseko awuzange ukhethe indawo ethile kwindawo yokuhlala isigxina seburhulumenteni.
Ukusungula isithili sombuso kwakuyinkinga engqubuzanayo eyahlula amaMelika iminyaka emininzi. Ngo-Julayi 16, ngo-1790, iNkcazo yadlulisa uMthetho woBuhlali, umyalelo ovumela uMongameli uGeorge Washington ukuba akhethe indawo yenkampani yesizwe kunye nokuqeshwa abathathu abakhomishina ukujongana nophuhliso lwayo. IWashington ikhethe indawo engama-elitha eli-1,6 yomhlaba ukusuka kwipropati e-Maryland naseVirginia eyayisezintlangeni zomlambo wasePotomac. Ngo-1791, iWashington yamisela uTom John Johnson, uDaniel Carroll, kunye noDavid Stuart ukuba bajongise ukucwangciswa, ukuyila kunye nokuthengwa kwepropati kwisithili se-federal. Amakhomishina athi igama elithi "Washington" ukuhlonipha uMongameli.
Ngomnyaka we-1791, uMongameli wamisela uPharles Charles L'Enfant, umyili waseMelika ozalelwa eFransi kunye neenjineli zobunjineli, ukuceba isicwangciso sesixeko esitsha. Uluhlu lwesixeko, igridi ejoliswe kwiUnited States Capitol , yayisetyenziswe phezulu kwentaba elawulwa nguMlambo wasePomomac, isebe laseMpuma (ngoku elibizwa ngokuba nguMlambo i-Anacostia ) kunye neR Rock Creek. Izitrato ezinokuthi zihamba ngasentla-ngasentla nakumaMpuma-ntshona zakha igridi. Ukudibanisa okukhulu "iindlela ezintle" ezibizwa ngokuba yi-union of the union. Apho ezi "ndlela ezinkulu" ziwela ngaphaya, izikhala ezivulekileyo kwiisangqa kunye neeplazas zabizwa ngokuba zibizwa ngabantu baseMerika abaziwayo.
Isihlalo sikarhulumente sathunyelwa kwisixeko esitsha ngo-1800. ISithili sase-Columbia kunye neendawo ezingasemakhaya zasemaphandleni zeSithili zalawulwa yiBhodi yamaKomishina angama-3. Ngo-1802, iCongress yachithwa iBhodi yamaKhomishina, ifakwe kwiSixeko saseWashington, kwaye yamisa ulawulo lolawulo oluqingqiweyo kunye noorhulumente oqeshwe nguMongameli kunye nebhunga leelungu elineshumi elinambini elikhethiweyo. Ngowe-1878, iCongress yadlulisela uMthetho we-Organic onika abaKhomishina aba-3 abaqeshwe nguMongameli, ukuhlawula isiqingatha sebhajethi yonyaka yesigqeba kunye nokuvunyelwa kwe-Congressional kunye nayiphi na isivumelwano esinama-$ 1,000 kwimisebenzi kawonkewonke. I-Congress yadlulisela iSithili se-Columbia Self-Government kunye noHlelo loHlelo loRhulumente ngo-1973 esungula inkqubo yangoku ye-imeya ekhethiweyo kunye neBhunga elilungu eli-13 elinamagunya omthetho kunye nezithintelo ezingavunyelwa yiCongress.
