In Chinese 美国的首都是哪里？
Official answer
- Washington, D.C.华盛顿特区（Washington, D.C.）
Why this is the answer
Washington, D.C. is the nation's capital, where the President (White House), Congress (Capitol), and Supreme Court are located. D.C. stands for District of Columbia, a special federal district that is not part of any state. Do not confuse it with Washington State on the West Coast, or with your own state's capital.
