The bullet holes in the U.S. Capitol are remnants of the War of 1812, specifically from the British invasion in 1814 when they set fire to the Capitol building. The damage was part of a broader attack that aimed to undermine American sovereignty. Over the years, other incidents, including protests and riots, have also resulted in damage to the structure, but the most notable bullet holes date back to this early conflict. These marks serve as historical reminders of the challenges faced by the young nation.
