I think Virginia is one of the most important states of the U.S. The capitol building was designed by Thomas Jefferson. Virginia's capitol building is the first one of the country and it was an inspiration for the rest of the states. It has a roman style and there is where senators and delegates make laws. Like how American make their laws because citizens can participate.

Another interesting thing is that Jefferson was from Virginia and he wrote the declaration of the independence of the Unites States. If you go to Richmond, you have to go to the Virginia State Capitol!!!

Mexican and American heroes!!!

Many of the American's countries had a revolution war, it was necessary and just. That's why I'm going to talk about the most important heroes of the independence of Unites States of America and Mexico.

Thomas Jefferson is an important historical person. He was the author of the American Declaration of the Independence of U.S. Also he was the third president of his country, second vice president, the first secretary of state and he founded the University of Virginia. With this entire example is easy to see why Jefferson is very important for U. S. 

In the case of México, I will talk about José María Morelos. He was a revolutionary leader of the Mexican Independence. In my opinion he's a real hero because after the Independence war, he called the Congress of Chilpancingo to form a government and draft a constitution.

Those people are recognized as a very important historical people in their countries.

Streets with art!!

Walking in the streets of Richmond can be an excellent experience... I love when I see murals like this. I think they express the feelings and thoughts of people who make them.

This is one of my favorites!!
