Answers to Workbook p. 143
Exercise A
a. Washington, D.D., was chosen as the site of the nation’s capital as the result of a compromise.
Exercise B
- T “The nation’s capital would stay in Philadelphia for ten more years. Then it would move . . . .”
- F “The American Revolution lasted from 1775 to 1781.”
- F “Most people wanted a national capital, but the couldn’t agree where it should be.”
- The wording of this question is not specific enough. After the American Revolution, they at first couldn’t agree, but later they did agree on Alexander Hamilton’s compromise. So I would accept either T or F as correct.
- T “The North had spent a lot of money on the American Revolution.” The South had not.
- T “Washington, D.C., thus became the national capital on July 16, 1790.”
