Back in the 1700's, the town of Trenton was being considered to be the location of the capitol of these United States. The geographical similarities of Trenton on the Delaware, and Washington on the Potomac are quite similar. Each was in an area which would have lent itself to a huge governmental center. As you will read in "How Trenton Lost," the south did us in!
