Answer:

U.S. Capitol and the White House

Step-by-step explanation:

During the War of 1812, the British set ablaze the White House and U.S. Capitol. It was known as the "Burning of Washington", and it occurred in 1814. The British invaded Washington City (the capital) that day, and it was the only time a foreign power controlled/captured the capital.
