The old Federal government continued to operate out of Washington D.C. after the Convention of States Impeached and replaced them. Some parts of America followed its direction in the months and years that followed that. They declared themselves the last legitimately-elected government, and granted themselves their offices until they could run new Federally-controlled elections. Which they only managed to run in the District of Columbia and a few other districts that supported them. They met for years in the old positions of power built by America, until worsening economic conditions in the District of Columbia forced the city to evict them in order to receive American aid. Most accepted that final defeat of their movement, but a few declared themselves the United States in Exile and continued to meet in undisclosed locations. Some reflection of that old government still operates today if the rumors are true, planning for the day when they can finally return and recreate America in their image.
