Autorenporträt
George Washington (1732-1799) was one of the most influential figures in American history, often hailed as the "Father of His Country." Born in Westmoreland County, Virginia, Washington's early life was marked by his career as a surveyor and his service in the Virginia militia during the French and Indian War. His leadership skills and dedication to the American cause became evident during the American Revolutionary War, where he served as the Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army. His strategic acumen and perseverance were crucial to the colonies' victory over British forces. Following the war, Washington played a key role in the drafting and ratification of the United States Constitution, subsequently being unanimously elected as the nation's first president in 1789. During his presidency, Washington set many precedents, including the establishment of the cabinet system and the tradition of a peaceful transfer of power. He emphasized national unity and warned against political factions and foreign entanglements in his Farewell Address. After serving two terms, Washington retired to his plantation at Mount Vernon in 1797, where he hoped to spend his remaining years in relative peace and quiet. Even in retirement, he remained a prominent public figure and continued to influence public affairs, corresponding with political leaders and observing the nation's development.
