The founding fathers and early political figures of the US were very interested in Graeco-Roman ideals, architecture and mythology, ancient Egyptian symbols, and Renaissance ideals, among other things.

E.g. all the government buildings and memorials in Washington D.C being Roman architecture influenced, the Washington monument being an Egyptian obelisk, the pyramid of divine providence on the back of the dollar, the Senate being called the Senate, cities like Cincinnati and Syracuse, etc.

If they were even more obsessed with the classics, what additional aspects could they adopt that would influence the government, architecture, culture, and language of the United States?
