Capitol Preservation Society

The Capitol Preservation Society is a museum on the midship deck of Rivet City.

Background
The museum is one of the most interesting and ambitious projects in Rivet City. Started a generation ago by Abraham Washington's parents, the project is maintained singlehandedly through his will and efforts. Washington dedicated his life to the preservation of historical knowledge about the United States of America and various artifacts related to the once mighty nation. His proudest exhibits are the Constitution of the United States, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the Gettysburg Address, though the most striking is an intact P-51 Mustang suspended from the ceiling. Unfortunately, while the respect for history is admirable, Washington lacks the necessary scientific regimen to properly reconstruct events and ends up with a... Strange version of history, to say the least.

Layout
The museum is contained inside a large chamber on the midship deck, with a smaller room adjacent to it acting as Washington's private quarters. The centerpiece of the room is the large fighter suspended from the ceiling, with salvaged neo-classicist columns and other historical artifacts surrounding it. The proudest collection of memorabilia is displayed on the southern wall, where Washington's collection of historical documents is displayed in glass cases. The contents of these displays are;
 * Constitution of the United States
 * Gettysburg Address
 * Monroe Doctrine
 * United States declaration of war upon Germany (1941)
 * Bill of Rights*
 * Declaration of Independence*
 * Magna Carta*
 * Optionally after Stealing Independence
