Need answer ASAP Which was a major reason for establishing the nation's new capital on the Potomac River between Maryland and Virginia?

The site was centrally located between the northern and southern states.

The city of Washington was already a thriving port on established trade routes.

The site was easy to defend because of the high mountains surrounding it.

No state wanted the nation's capital within its borders, so unclaimed land was needed.

Answer is in the photo. I can't attach it here, but I uploaded it to a file hosting. link below! Good Luck!

b. major john c. frémont led a rebellion called the bear flag revolt.

explanation:

during the bear flag revolt, from june to july 1846, a small group of american settlers in california rebelled against the mexican government and proclaimed california an independent republic. the republic was short-lived because soon after the bear flag was raised, the u.s. military began occupying california, which went on to join the union in 1850. the bear flag became the official state flag in 1911.
