Tell about George Washington ?

hi

George Washington (February 22, 1732–December 14, 1799) was an American political leader, military general, statesman, and Founding Father who served as the first President of the United States (1789–1797).

He commanded Patriot forces in the new nation's vital American Revolutionary War and led them to victory over the British....

Washington also presided at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, which established the new federal government.....!

Washington was born to a prosperous family of slave holding planters in colonial Virginia......!

He had educational opportunities and launched an early successful career as a land surveyor..............

He then became a leader of the Virginia militia in the French and Indian War.......!

During the Revolutionary War he was a delegate to the Continental Congress, was unanimously appointed commander-in-chief of the Army, and led an allied campaign to victory at the Siege of Yorktown ending the conflict...

Once victory was in hand in 1783, he resigned as commander-in-chief......!

Washington's brother Lawrence was an adjutant general at death, and this inspired Washington to pursue his own military career....

He was initially trained in musters and drills; subsequently the lieutenant governor of Virginia, Robert Unwieldiness, appointed him adjutant, first to the Southern district in December 1752 and later to the Northern and Eastern districts as well.

In February 1753 Windiness appointed Washington as district adjunct general at an annual salary of £100, then promoted him to major, functioning as the British military envoy to the French officials directing them to vacate the British claimed territory.....

Thirty years later Washington reflected "that so young and inexperienced a person should have been employed"....

The marriage gave Washington control over Martha's one-third dower interest in the 18,000-acre (7,300 ha) Curtis estate, worth about £40,000 (equivalent to about $10 million in 2018), and he managed the remaining two-thirds for Martha's children; he also acquired 84 slaves through the marriage.

He became one of Virginia's wealthiest men and thus increased his social standing.....

Washington's step-daughter Patsy Custis suffered from epileptic attacks from age 12, and she died in his arms in 1773.

The following day, he wrote to Burwell Bassett: "It is easier to conceive, than to describe, the distress of this Family...."

He canceled all business activity and remained with Martha every night for three months.....

His half of Patsy's inheritance allowed him to pay off British creditors.

Washington soon was counted among the political and social elite in Virginia. From 1768 to 1775, he invited some 2,000 guests to his Mount Vernon estate, mostly those whom he considered "people of rank"....

His advice regarding people who were not of high social status was to "treat them civilly" but "keep them at a proper distance, for they will grow upon familiarity, in proportion as you sink in authority".....

He became more politically active in 1769, presenting legislation in the Virginia Assembly to establish an embargo on goods from Great Britain.....

The Revolutionary War against Britain began in April 1775, with the Battles of Lexington and Concord, and a Patriot siege of the British in Boston, and the Second Continental Congress officially created the Continental Army the next month.....

Samuel Adams and John Adams passed over John Hancock in nominating Washington as commander in chief, and he was unanimously elected the next day.....

Washington initially crossed the Delaware at sunset Christmas Day and, risking capture, staked out the Jersey shoreline. His men followed across the ice-obstructed river in sleet and snow at McKonkey's Ferry, with 40 men per vessel. Wind churned up the waters, and they were pelted with hail...
