Once we became a sovereign nation and on our own Philadelphia was the capitol. Lots of grey area here.

Yes, it is a lot of grey area. I agree with you, but if you talk to any other hardcore "Yorkian" they will say it's the first capital and that's that. In the history books, it was a temporary location to draft the first articles while they were moving to Philly. York was never officially established as "this is our nations capital" There are a lot of heavy/hardcore history buffs around here, especially with Gettysburg right down the road.
