Brief biography George Washington was born in 1732 in the Wei Kefu de Virginia Manor. He was a wealthy planter's son, twenty years old inherited a considerable property. 1753 to 1758 served in the military during the Washington, DC, and actively participated in the French war between with the Indians, in order to gain military experience and prestige; 1758 disarmament, demobilization and return to Virginia, with four soon with a children's rich widow ─ ─ 玛莎丹德利 Home Custis married (he does not own children.) Washington began in June 1775 command of the Continental Army, to March 1797 the second presidential term expires, his most significant contribution was made during this period. December 1799 in Virginia Winn Hill, died at his home. Leading American War of Independence April 19, 1775, the people of Boston to Lexington (April 18, 1775 evening, stationed in the North American colonies in the British army quietly from Boston to the North American militia seized the weapons collection. North American militia, the investigators found He immediately rode to news reports of militia along the way. militia ambush quickly, ready to fight.) fired the first shot against British colonial rule, the people of the North American states have responded, vigorous American War of Independence broke out. June 1775, the 13 British colonies in North America held in Philadelphia, "Continental Congress", Washington was appointed commander of the Continental Army. At this time, Boston is and where the British Rebel battle, Washington, riding off immediately, arrived in Boston on July 3, he personally directing the battle front, to a severe blow to the British. Early in the war, the U.S. military played very hard, most of them are temporary recruiting to the farmers, tattered clothes, no weapons, no formal military training, did not look like an army, on the other hand, the U.S. The logistics are extremely difficult, the soldiers are often hungry, clothed, sometimes not eat bread, five or six days a row, had to eat horse feed, in the cold winter, there are many soldiers had to march barefoot. Instead, their opponents are well-equipped British army, trained, and logistics supply. Therefore, the U.S. military a defeat Zaibai and New York have been the fall of the fortress, to September 1777, even the capital of the British occupation of Philadelphia is also some weak in the mind of the British surrender to the generals actually shuaibing. In this extremely dangerous situation, Washington has always been loyal to the cause of independence the people of North America, has never wavered. His extraordinary abilities, the original free, undisciplined, lack of organizational discipline and unity of command of U.S. forces organized, growth in combat training, and gradually established a strong regular army. He encouraged U.S. soldiers to call their fight for freedom, that: the United man is free or slave; us their land should belong to themselves, or be hijacked, destroyed; two paths, one is brave enough to fight, one is tame, is placed in front of Independence Army soldiers. He tried to unite the states, linked together to combat. October 1777, the U.S. defeated the British at Saratoga, which turned the whole situation of the War of Independence. At the same time, in order to isolate the United States and Britain launched a multi-diplomatic activities, seek the assistance of France and other countries. June 1778, the French warships entered the United States, the British were forced to retreat from Philadelphia, the main direction of turning south. In 1780, British troops moved to the main southern port city of Yorktown. France and the U.S. two times, almost equal to Yorktown. Method military naval blockade the harbor, the sea off the British supply lines and cut off the retreat the British army, Washington led his troops then stormed from the front. October 1781, the British commander Kang Hua Li led the 7000 British surrender to Washington at Yorktown, the U.S. War of Independence made the final victory. Thus, the American War of Independence in the end of the period of military confrontation. 1782, signed the "Treaty of Paris," the draft. In 1783, British and American sign the "Treaty of Paris," the British recognized the independence. After the victory of the War of Independence, Washington, demobilize and return to Virginia to continue to operate their own plantations - Vernon Hills, vine and fig tree in the shade to enjoy the quiet rural life. In 1787, again coming out of Washington, presided over the Constitutional Convention, has developed the world's first written constitution of a capitalist class - "the Federal Constitution." April 1789, Washington was elected the first President of the United States. When he became president eight years later, vowed to no longer re-election, and resolutely returned to Mount Vernon Hills, over to civilian life. December 14, 1799, Washington passed away. Historical Status First, he is in the American War of Independence, a successful military leader. But in fact he is certainly not a military genius, of course, must not be Caesar and Alexander and general a class of par. At least half of his success was due to play against the British with his surprise generals incompetent, the other half is due to his own talents. But keep in mind several other U.S. generals have all been defeated, and Washington played a few small defeats, though eventually won the war. Second, Washington is the President of the Constituent Assembly. Although his ideas on the formation of the United States Constitution does not play an important role, but his supporters and his fame to the state constitution was ratified played a significant role. There were a powerful force in the fight against the new constitution, but for Washington's influence, it is difficult to implement the Constitution had said. Third, Washington is the first U.S. president. A Washington, United States, ability and political integrity such as the first president who is lucky. Turn over the history of South American and African countries, we can see that even the beginning of a new democratic constitution for the country degenerated into military despotism is a breeze. Washington is a strong leader who maintained the national unity, but there is no ambition always dominated regime, neither the king wanted to do, not want to be dictator. He created a precedent for the right to take the initiative to date ─ ─ United States is still pursuing a precedent. And then other American leaders such as Thomas Jefferson, April 13, 1743 -1826 on July 4), James Madison (, March 16, 1751 -1836 on June 28), Alexander Hamilton, January 11, 1757 - July 12, 1804), and other than the lack of innovative spirit of George Washington, and deep thoughts. But his ingenious than the characters are all much more important, whether in war or peace, he is in the administrative leadership plays a vital role in any political campaign without him will not achieve their goals. The formation of the United States, Madison's contribution is significant, and can almost be said of Washington's contribution is indispensable. Evaluation of future generations George Washington's position in this book depends largely on how people know him brought to the United States historical significance. Requires a kind of today's Americans make a balanced assessment of the historical significance of nature is difficult. Although the United States in the twentieth century with even the heyday of the Roman Empire than the bigger military power and political influence, but the government may not like the Roman Empire as the long line. On the other hand, the technical achievements made by the United States there are several other nationalities will also be considered to be significant, it seems obvious to all. For example, the invention of aircraft and human landing on the moon represents the results of people dream of the past generations; hard to imagine the invention of nuclear weapons in the future will be seen as insignificant achievement. Since George Washington and Rome in general can be comparable to Augustus Caesar, in this book in his row with Augustus seems very close to unreasonable. If we say that the Washington is scheduled to be a bit lower, it is mainly because he Biaogusi have much shorter lead time, there are many others such as Thomas Jefferson and James Madison are also on the formation of the United States played an important role. But Washington and Napoleon, Alexander the Great than this figure is scheduled to be higher, because his credit is more than their indelible. The founders of the United States - Washington We all know that the U.S. capital of Washington, which is located along the Atlantic coast of the Potomac River. In fact, the United States before 1800 and there is no such city, it is the American people to commemorate the founding fathers of the United States - George Washington, established specifically, it can be seen in his eyes how much the American people noble. Washington, different people. The courage to win wide rebellion, separatist male on Cao Liu, sword already raised three feet, to break thousands of miles, are not illegal structures in position, do not preach the children and grandchildren, but for the elect of the law created a few in Tianxiaweigong, almost three generations of Qin Chen Qin Chen The left Italy. Roger good customs of their country, not yet martial arts, but also distant and different Asian countries. I taste reflected in its portrait hung gas Maung Yi peerless. Alas, do not carry that greater odds indeed! United States of America that the country, size of miles, no princes of the number, do not follow the rules of inheritance, a public institution to pay the verdict, not the Bureau of ancient and modern innovation, is also a how odd! Tessie ancient and modern figures, can be said not to Washington for the first indeed!

Truly great statesman - Washington
"Pure pious politicians who should be the same as respect and cherish the religious and moral." If this sentence from the mouth of Joe Smith or John Doe, and could lead to laughter. Washington statue in Philadelphia Because in most people's minds, it means playing the political and ethical violations, and only a lie when the politicians will be slipped out of his mouth sounding moral words. Fortunately, he said these words of the people, all life as practice. He is the father of one of the United States, Washington, DC. It is rare because the character of this political family, so I wanted to write essays about great men, the feel should be in Washington on the first paper. As the years went by, we can feel more and more, Washington's political legacy in the historical development of the world. Unfortunately, we have only few words of Washington, heard more, know most are stuck in the level of secondary school textbooks. Our objective is dyed Kang Xi Incognito Travel, Yongzheng Wu Yingming God's image. Front of the TV, we seem to be the Qing Empire, people. For in the political jungle, not always lost, we should remove the beam out your eyes. Because the world has so many great need for us to enjoy. Eat not from Zhongming Ding Washington home, his father died young, aged 17, began to independent living, their education or even less than Abraham Lincoln, at most, but the primary extent. He also had seemed miraculous invulnerability experience. 22-year-old became the commander in chief of Virginia, a famous hero in one fell swoop. From 21 to 26 years, he and the French Indian war. But in the next 16 years is only an ordinary Virginia planter. Once again the times he was pushed to the foreground of history. 1775 Washington was elected commander in chief of the Continental Army. He ordered the dangers, free or enslaved colonial peoples faces such major problems, enemy of the current, the overall situation seems to be small I obeyed, a god-like figure in the leadership to move forward. But we do not see history in the American continent, a common occurrence. The United States in the pursuit of independence and freedom in the process, always accompanied by the vigilance of the people of tyranny, distrust of power. Even Washington was elected commander in chief led to John Adams, but also embarrassed because he was worried about, and establish the cause of creating an independent national symbol of the people, the historical experience made him aware of the risk is unusual: "Where no strong one is not trying to grab all the power they may be. " Under normal circumstances, war is always inevitable burning and looting captive, and Washington has always firmly believed that moral and political value. Even the bare feet of his soldiers left bloody in the snow footprints, nor prompted him to collect military material with a bayonet. Him is a people's war. If only this regard, then, as it always do this not just Washington. Dissatisfaction in the military, he saw a threat to freedom, not the opportunity to seize power. When Colonel Lewis Nicola wrote in 1782 to persuade Washington to assume the responsibility of the king of America, he wrote back: "Throughout the course of the war, no more than troops have you talked about this idea makes me even more painful ... ... I hate it and strongly condemned the destruction of my country would be extremely harmful to the "point of view. 1783 Hamilton rhetoric to persuade Washington to use the power of disgruntled army bayonets, but he can not reply to Washington leadership will "create internal turmoil and ended in bloodshed" action. I do not know whether Washington had a private word read flash. Because in that era, not the people to manage their own precedent, when the great powers are kings, and history can be said is basically a royal history. The world and no country had a large initiative to establish a republican government. Montesquieu, a republic that is only suitable for small countries, big countries are appropriate for treatment by a despot, while in Europe is generally considered, by the people themselves govern the country, will eventually lead to anarchy and chaos. In any case, Washington did not follow the trend of the time, add one more for the world crown. However, because the world more than a president to shift, leaving the crown from this bleak and even harder to wear stability. American War of Independence is the only time in world history to keep his word revolution. 1776 "Declaration of Independence," solemnly declared to the world: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, including the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, among them the establishment of human only in government, the legitimate powers of government, it is by being granted consent of the governed. "These exciting words, not as many revolutions do, just to recruit concocted propaganda, until seized power, it becomes a dead letter. American history is the history of practice of these promises. It is because of this, the German musicians, Schubert said that in the United States, thirteen, "Golden said the door to intolerance, and open the victims of despotism." And the Irish nationalist leader Henry Grattan will spur their own compatriots: "In your before determining the feasibility of a slave, always looking toward the United States." He needs the reward is, in their own vine and fig tree, and fancy free to enjoy the cool shade satisfied and enjoy the power of DDR easy farewell. In a letter to Lafayette, he said, "I finally became a Potomac River, the ordinary people." It is his unparalleled political personality, making the future generations in the preparation of his political biography, do not write with the feelings of regret that a few words: if he returned to Mount Vernon Christmas Eve farming season to later years has done, So He is the greatest figures in history, one can say his life is full of divine glory. Washington does not need to do after such an assumption mediocre. Although later return to politics, but he did not want to fight for the cause of the American people under the name of life, clung to power records. 1789 Washington, DC as the sole candidate is elected the first President of the United States, he can not even go to the temporary capital of New York, travel expenses, is to borrow money gather the. When he sat on the road when their own coach, he will change the course of human history. He is taking the unprecedented way, will show the world that the great savior of mankind must have a messianic view of outdated. The torch of freedom can not be extinguished. Because of his failure, it will become impossible to freedom and autonomy of human cases. When to resume the pursuit of human freedom again in the confidence? Later pleased to see that he was free to leave the signs, not the tombstone. The first president, Washington, tired of power struggles. 1792 was an election year, he Madison said: "He would rather pick up a hoe to earn pieces of bread to eat, that's stronger than it is now such a situation." The problem is that after leaving Washington, how the smooth transfer of power. Will there be a bloody fight for it? The lessons of history is too much. Electoral system in such a country, how the transfer of power is indeed related to the Qianqiutaiye. Country needed him to continue. 1793, and again as the only candidate, the Electoral College unanimously re-elected him to continue. He created a precedent for up to two presidential re-election. Farewell address in 1796, he has determined to decline as the next president will be their candidate, but to care Fu Zhiguo through elections to the task. This year, the Chinese Emperor Qianlong transmission bit to Jiaqing, exactly 60 years were made by the emperor. March 1797 Washington returned to Mount Vernon operate their own industry. He did not serve for life, depends on the throne of power, until the last breath of life. He did not _select_ his successor, and let the people through elections. This is his outstanding contribution to human political civilization. He told later and contemporary, the king and the nobility not essential, the ability of people to govern without the need to power figures from the designated heir, in the election, he stay out of, not against betray their Jefferson, not for John Adams, cheer, which shows the Republican's charm and vitality. He also dislike partisanship, also warned the American people factional struggles of the country's dangerous, but always remain impartial. It can be said that the limitations of the great man, he failed to realize that in the absence of like him created by the times, and welcomed by the great man, the political leaders on how to generate the problem; he did not realize that the political position competition, would have a factional dispute. The last moment of his life, and their descendants can feel his charisma. One of his biographer, Abraham Flexner wrote: "Washington, Mount Vernon also do think that the family is too narrow and dilapidated old grave, and he is planning to take a little better, but do not want that to his name States named on the streets to build a towering proudly over the building to commemorate what he was. "He does not want the center of Washington, became his burial. The real monument is standing in people's minds, rather than imposing marble building. However, not all politicians are aware and willing to accept the truth. When he closed the coffin of that moment, people are full of grief, not fear. Political legacy he left behind not only benefit the American people, but also benefit the whole world. After all this time and the American people do not need to worry about, the great death, days will fall down. Create a new era of politics in Washington. Although he was in power, but always listen to the call of conscience, careful humility of power. He is a politician of the politician, great man of the great man. Future generations can see that from him, the original is such a politician also able to image. It is also he, with his words and deeds, to tell the world that can be benign combination of political and moral to what extent. Politics is not always synonymous with shameless, is not the only political villain, to make contributions. Washington is like a beacon of political personality, always have or want to have a reminder of the power of the people, not confusing maze of power. But Washington is not a natural right of the gods. He did not think so, there is not that his compatriots to shape. Before him was some resentment, there is also accused of death. Although he can be said to the other side of the U.S. flag, the American people will also be singing songs: "Praise the horn sounded, so Washington's illustrious name, reverberates the world, won the cheers," but the Americans did not have his pampered God Tan, compliments he is the great savior of the American people. Because in this land has never been the almost deprived of the political altar. Since then, the American people do not put more of their own destiny and hope, their faith in the saint's hands. They admire Washington, but ignored the power has always been wary. Evaluation of the Washington historians have three different views: Both a military strategist, but also a political thinker says Washington cutting down trees to do well known, the performance of his honesty.
