Because it was more or less midway between New England and the South. It didn't hurt that it was swampland and not considered of much value.

The actual language authorizing the creation of a federal is provided in Article One, Section Eight, of the United States Constitution, which permits a "District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States"

Originally The Commonwealth of Virginia and the State of Maryland both ceded land, and the original size of the federal capital was 100 square miles (or 10 miles square). However, in 1846 the land provided by the Commonwealth of Virginia was retroceded and no longer part of the capital.

Washington DC now has an area of:
- City 68.3 sq mi (177.0 km2)
- Land 61.4 sq mi (159.0 km2)
- Water 6.9 sq mi (18.0 km2)

On August 24-25, 1814, in a raid known as the Burning of Washington, British forces invaded the capital during the War of 1812. The Capitol, Treasury, and White House were burned and gutted during the attack.

Historians assert that the attack was in retaliation for the American looting of York, Upper Canada (now Toronto) after the Battle of York in 1813, and the burning down of the Parliament Buildings of Upper Canada. The British Army commanders said they chose to attack Washington "on account of the greater political effect likely to result,"

On August 24, 1814, the advance guard of British troops made a march to Capitol Hill. General Robert Ross sent a party under a flag of truce to agree to terms, but they were attacked by partisans from a house at the corner of Maryland Avenue, Constitution Avenue, and Second Street NE. This was to be the only resistance the soldiers met. The house was burned, and the Union Flag raised over Washington.

The reason the British were able to capture Washington DC, was that they had superior arms and a larger force of armed men.
