Washington D.C.

From Usgs

Washington, D.C. is the Capital city of the United States. It is not part of any game Region or Superregion, since it is not legally a state, and its citizens cannot vote for Senators or Governors. In-game, its local government is Admin-run, headed by Mayor Adrien Fenty as an NPC.

In 2011, after a terrorist attack on the United States, the U.S. Congress temporarily moved to the Greenbrier, a resort in West Virginia which had a cold-war era facility for Congress to use in the event of nuclear war. In the 2011 temporary move, however, the primary concern was not Armageddon, but the unsuitability of Congress to use the Capitol during repairs, at a time when Congressional action would be needed urgently. It could be argued that the Greenbrier (and therefore the city of White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia) was the temporary capital city of the United States. However, the city remained part of West Virginia, and Appalachia during this brief period.
