In 1789 the Constitution became the basis for the United States federal government, with war hero George Washington as the first president. The young nation continued to struggle with the scope of central government and with European influence, creating the first political parties in the 1790s, and fighting a second war for independence in 1812.
No think your wrong. I was watching pawn stars today on the history channel and it said some other person was the first president? Ok if he is, why do they say George Washington was the first president of the u.s.
John Hanson was the first president under the Articles of Confederation. George Washington was the first president under the U.S. Constitution.
