I actually looked up the spot you picked for the capital on Google Earth. Very nice spot, good area for a harbor too.

War with the UK; looks like Andy Jacksons senate days are shortlived (assuming he will run off towards the battlefield)...

I think the attack on NYC should make the Feds think more about the defense of the soon to be capital in Maryland.

It would be ironic if it was Burr vs Hamilton for President.

The map is awesome! I was wondering how you would include Ontario and Quebec, but you made it look perfect! Great job Smiley I love the irony of the Burr-Hamilton cartoon.

You can always mix the two, and after giving a list of events date by date, have a section in the textbook style. I would do wars, and more indepth posts on domestic policy in that format. That way, we can still read about the Industrial Bounties Act this way...
December 2nd, 1805:
On the first day of the session of the 9th Congress, several bills are submitted by Hamilton’s supporters for passage. Among them are the Whiskey Act, an act to put an excise taxes on liquor and other distilled drinks, the Hamilton Tariff, raising rates once again to 6%, the Industrial Bounties Act, investing revenues from tariffs and other taxes back into businesses, and the First Bank of the United States, creating a national bank in order to provide a strong backing for the growing economy, good credit for all, and a national stake in growing industry.
and later on, in another update (or in the same one, doesn't really matter Wink) this way...

It would be funny to have a President named Bushrod.

James Madison could make a bid in 1812.

Bushrod's career has been interesting. You do an amazing job at keeping people in check. So many people, so many differant posts and offices. It would confuse the hell out of me, but you are able to keep them in track perfectly Smiley

Great update-two whole weeks of fighting at St. Huberts sounds brutal. It sounds like it was the Gettysburg of the war. Anyways, it’s good to hear that Adams and Jefferson’s friendship is being rekindled. They had, possibly with the exception of Samuel Pepys, the most interesting written accounts of their era in those letters. I'm sure you know more about them than I do, being much more astute in early American history Wink.
