Am Anfang des 21. Jahrhunderts, als die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika in dreizehn Commonwealths aufgeteilt wurden, Washington, DC, die Vor-Kriegs Hauptstadt der Vereinigten Staaten, wurde ein Teil von Commonwealth von Columbia, zusammen mit Virginia und Maryland. Nach dem großen Krieg war die Stadt radioaktiv verstrahlt und die Ruinen und das Umgebungsgebiet werden seitdem das Ödland der Hauptstadt genannt.
Orte
Lincoln Memorial
The Lincoln Memorial stands in the ruins; the seated statue of Lincoln is missing its head (it is located in the Temple of the Union). Sand bags scattered around the memorial, which were used as cover by slavers.[1] The head may be restored after following a quest given by Hannibal Hamlin who leads a small unit of escaped slaves that are trying to create a haven for other runaway slaves.
Washington Monument
The obelisk that is the Washington Monument now has a wall made of concrete surrounding it, and is occupied by the Brotherhood of Steel. The monument's sandstone and marble has fallen off at many places and reveal its internal metal structure. The bronze statue of George Washington has disappeared from the lobby, nowhere to be found. It also houses the Galaxy News Radio dish at the building's top.
Geschichtsmuseum
The Museum of History remains largely untouched except for general decay and trash can fires. Old posters for the space exhibit at the Museum of Technology still hang. A woolly mammoth statue sits in the center untouched by time or the Great War, but the headless skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus Rex was not so fortunate; other dinosaur bones litter the area, reminders of another dominant species wiped out by a great cataclysm.[2] And, due to the decaying ruins, three of the four exhibits entryways are blocked, including the WWII, the Anchorage Reclamation and the Resource Wars, leaving only the Abraham Lincoln exhibit fully intact. Further inside the museum, the player can find the Underworld museum exhibit, which has been converted into a city of ghouls. If you explore any other parts of the Museum, you will find Lincoln's artifacts, such as the Lincoln Memorial poster, Lincoln's Repeater and dozens of feral ghouls.
Technisches Museum
A dilapidated shell of its former glory, the Museum of Technology lies in ruin. The Wright brothers' Flier has fallen, its wings broken, and a faded old Vault-Tec banner hangs nearby. A monument to man's pride and achievement, set amid the result,[3] and is currently occupied by super mutants. The Virgo II Lander is here, several Stealth Boys, and plaques about several missing artifacts that were looted, many of which were weaponry presumably appropriated for use in the Wasteland. There is also an exhibit which is a recreation of a Vault-Tec vault, labeled vault 100.
The Capitol Building
The Capitol Building still stands, barely, with its walls showing heavy damage and the majestic dome partially destroyed. It is still a battleground between Talon Company, Enclave, and the super mutants who struggle for control. Burning rubble and bodies lie everywhere along with equipment that long ago was used to repair this place of government.[4]
Jefferson Memorial
The Jefferson Memorial was converted to a water filtering facility with very large water pipes obstructing the main entrance. A smaller side entrance to the gift shop is open toward the west. This is used as a base for Project Purity, which seeks to provide clean water to the entire Capital Wasteland. It is the focal point of many of the main quests, particularly Take it Back!.
Weißes Haus
The White House is also a location on the map, though it is nothing more than a massive irradiated crater at this point. It appears to have been hit directly by a nuclear bomb. A Fat Man and three mini nukes are located in it, and there are several level-dependent ghouls that inhabit the crater.
The Mall
The Mall is the location between the Museum of Technology, Museum of History, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, and Capitol Building. The Capitol Building and Lincoln Memorial are on the far ends, the Washington Monument near the center, and the Museums are on the sides. If you go straight down the middle of the Mall, expect to be attacked by dozens of super mutants, and by the Capitol Building, super mutants, Talon Company mercs, and an Enclave camp if you are far enough into the game.
