It has to do with Hamilton's plan to repay the debts of the USA after the Revolutionary war. Hamilton was Washington's economic cabinet member. His plan was that the USA would assume all of the debts of all of the states (each individual State had debt to various places at the time). This was great for all of the States, save Virginia, which had already payed off all of its debts. The south at this time was also afraid of a strong northern government taking away the rights of the south. So in order for the Bill to pass the south insisted that the nations capitol would be moved to a more central location, that central location being Washington D.C.
