It initially met at [[Congress Hall]] in [[Philadelphia, Pennsylvania|Philadelphia]], [[Pennsylvania]] and then was the first congress to meet in the new [[United States Capitol|Capitol Building]] in [[Washington, D.C.]]. Its term was from March 4, 1799, to March 4, 1801, during the last two years of [[John Adams]]'s [[Presidency of John Adams|presidency]]. It was the last Congress of the 18th century and the first to convene in the 19th. The [[apportionment]] of seats in House of Representatives was based on the [[1790 United States census]]. Both chambers had a [[Federalist Party|Federalist]] majority. This was the last Congress in which the Federalist Party controlled the presidency or either chamber of Congress. {{TOC limit|2}} ==Major events== {{Main|1799 in the United States|1800 in the United States|1801 in the United States}} * December 14, 1799: Former President [[George Washington]] died * February 24, 1800: [[Library of Congress]] founded * November 17, 1800: Congress held its first session in [[Washington, D.C.]] * January 20, 1801: [[John Marshall]] was appointed [[Chief Justice of the United States]] * February 17, 1801: [[1800 United States presidential election]]: [[Thomas Jefferson]] became the first [[President of the United States]] elected by the House of Representatives as no candidate received a majority of the [[Electoral College (United States)|electoral votes]] cast in the [[1800 United States presidential election|1800 presidential election]].
