The "Federal Period" refers specifically to the architectural style in the United States following the American Revolution, whereas the "Georgian Era" is a broader term encompassing the reign of British Kings George I, II, and III, during which the Georgian architectural style developed and was widely used in the American colonies before the Revolution; essentially, the Federal period is the American adaptation of the Georgian style after gaining independence, with a more refined and distinctly American aesthetic.
