This metasite from the University of Virginia American Studies Program uses the physical presence of the Capitol building in the Washington, DC area as an organizing principle for over 80 sites dealing with American history, government, and culture. Visitors can take a virtual tour of the Capitol, examining its architecture and detailing while linking with sites that offer thorough narratives of the history behind both the building itself and the events represented in its art and architecture. Users can also click on the Mall icon or a map of the nation to access sites such as the Arlington National Cemetery; The Holocaust Memorial Museum: An Analysis; Crossing the River: Race, Geography, and the Federal Government in Anacostia; and Puck: Politics and Satire in the Gilded Age. Those with specific interests can use the site and graphic indexes to quickly locate materials relevant to their study, or they can avail themselves of the on-site search engine. The educational opportunities provided by such a Website seem limited only by the creativity of students and their teachers.
