The signing of the [[Residence Act]] on July 16, 1790, approved the creation of a [[capital districts and territories|capital district]] located along the [[Potomac River]] on the country's [[East Coast of the United States|East Coast]]. The [[U.S. Constitution]] provided for a [[federal district]] under the [[District of Columbia home rule|exclusive jurisdiction]] of the [[U.S. Congress]], and the District is therefore not a part of any state. The states of [[Maryland]] and [[Virginia]] each donated land to form the federal district, which included the pre-existing settlements of [[Georgetown (Washington, D.C.)|Georgetown]] and [[Alexandria, Virginia|Alexandria]]. The City of Washington was founded in 1791 to serve as the new national capital. In 1846, Congress [[District of Columbia retrocession|returned the land originally ceded by Virginia]]; in 1871, it created a [[District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871|single municipal government]] for the remaining portion of the District.
 
Washington had an estimated population of 702,455 {{as of|2018|July|lc=y}},<ref name="census2018">{{cite news |title=Nevada and Idaho Are the Nation's Fastest-Growing States |url=https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2018/estimates-national-state.html?CID=CBSM+POP18 |accessdate=22 January 2019 |agency=US Census Bureau |date=19 December 2018}}</ref> making it the [[List of United States cities by population|20th most populous city in the United States]].

All three branches of the U.S. federal government are centered in the District: [[Congress (United States)|Congress]] (legislative), [[President of the United States|president]] (executive), and the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] (judicial). Washington is home to many national [[List of museums in Washington, D.C.|monuments, and museums]], primarily situated on or around the [[National Mall]]. The city hosts [[List of diplomatic missions in Washington, D.C.|177 foreign embassies]] as well as the headquarters of many international organizations, trade unions, non-profits, lobbying groups, and professional associations, including the [[World Bank Group]], the [[International Monetary Fund]] (IMF), the [[Organization of American States]], [[AARP]], the [[National Geographic Society]], the [[Human Rights Campaign]], the [[International Finance Corporation]], and the [[American Red Cross]].
 
A locally elected [[Mayor of the District of Columbia|mayor]] and a 13‑member [[Council of the District of Columbia|council]] have governed the District since 1973. However, Congress maintains supreme authority over the city and may overturn local laws. D.C. residents elect a [[District of Columbia voting rights|non-voting]], at-large [[Non-voting members of the United States House of Representatives|congressional delegate]] to the [[United States House of Representatives|House of Representatives]], but the District has no representation in the [[United States Senate|Senate]]. The District receives three [[United States Electoral College|electoral votes]] in presidential elections as permitted by the [[Twenty-third Amendment to the United States Constitution]], ratified in 1961.
 
For statistical purposes, the District of Columbia is treated as a [[U.S. state|state]]-equivalent (and a [[County (United States)|county]]-equivalent) by the [[U.S. Census Bureau]].<ref>https://www2.census.gov/geo/pdfs/reference/GARM/Ch4GARM.pdf States, Counties, and Statistically Equivalent Entities (Chapter 4).
