Premise is incorrect. Part of Virginia and part of Maryland were taken to form the District so the seat of government wouldn't be inside any one state. So DC is in America. Just look at a map.
Also, if it was foreign soil, wouldn't you need a passport to go there? Obviously not, as I've been there numerous times, and I don't own a passport. Of course I went with my family to Canada years ago, and none of us had passports.
If your goint to tell the story...its much more amazing when you use the right words.
The lands of Viriginia the "virgin" and Maryland the "mary" ceded (think seeded) the lands of 10² miles.
How crazy is that?!?
In the 1850's Virginia receded their land back, and thats why OP's picture doesn't look like the full diamond shape.
