No. The United States has 50 states, a number of territories/dependents, and D.C. The city of Washington, D.C. is a "federal city." It sits on land given by both Maryland and Virginia to be the nation's capital.

Is Washington D.C. considered as part of the US when it comes to living in the US for 14 years requirement?

Yes it is. While there are certain restrictions on Washington DC regarding its status as a state(hood), DC is legally part of the United States. DC is literally the capitol of the entire country, rather than being part of a state. Because of the sensitivity of having the capitol of the country in a state, it was decided that DC would not be in ANY state but rather a city without a state. This is why it is called DC..District of Columbia. This way, no state can exert pressure on the capitol of the country with state loyalties.
