Because it doesn't belong to usa its its own district like its own state

Like the Vatican

It does belong to the USA, just not as a state, as an independent district managed by the federal gov rather than a state government

now i am just confused

There you go. A lot of he explained it better. It's because the federal government owns it

It's the Vatican. Hahahaha

Because it is a district carved out of two states by the federal gov that is independent of said states

that sounds weird as hell

It was the deal they made when they decided to move the capital from New York. Which was a compromise they came up with that got individual states out of debt as the federal gov assumed it

wait, whaaaaa

new york used to be the capital?!?

It is a little weird. It means that the government is not part of the united states.

so it's a separate entity? how do you visualise it as a mind map?
