Демонстрационный материал к уроку о столице Америки. Вашингтон — город, столица Соединённых Штатов Америки. Официальное название — округ Колумбия, является самостоятельной территорией, не входящей ни в один из штатов. Город был основан в 1791 году и назван в честь Джорджа Вашингтона, первого американского президента Границы округа совпадают с городом, поэтому американцы, чтобы не путать город с одноимённым штатом на северо-западе страны, в разговорной речи обычно называют город «Ди-Си» или «Вашингтон Ди-Си».
