What is the historical evaluation of Washington, the "father of America"?

? Washington was a bourgeois revolutionary, an outstanding military commander and the father of America. During the War of Independence, he led the American army to fight hard with the British army. The famous battles are Delaware, Princeton and Saratoga. After he took office, he established and improved democracy and legal system, established the Supreme Court, founded the Bank of America, unified the currency, established a tax system, encouraged the development of national industries, and put the new United States on the right track.

As the founder of the United States of America, Washington's name is a household name, and his reputation mainly comes from three aspects:

First of all, the military leaders in the American War of Independence.

Admittedly, he is by no means a military genius, and certainly he can't be compared with generals like Alexander and Caesar. His success seems to be due to the unexpected incompetence of British generals and the other half to his own talent. Nevertheless, people may still remember that when the American generals were defeated, Washington persisted in fighting and finally won the final victory of the war, although he also suffered a small defeat.

Second, the presidential constitutional convention.

Although his thoughts had little influence on the American Constitution itself, his supporters and his reputation played an important role in the process of ratification of the Constitution by the states. At that time, there was a powerful force against the new constitution. Without Washington's support, the new constitution could not be passed.

Third, the first president of the United States.

The United States is lucky to have a man with both ability and political integrity like Washington as its first president. Looking at the history of South American and African countries, we can see that even a new country with a democratic constitution from the beginning can easily degenerate into a military dictatorship. Washington is a firm leader. He maintained the unity of the country, but he has no ambition to be in power forever. He doesn't want to be king or dictator. He set a precedent for voluntarily surrendering power-a precedent that the United States still pursues today.

Because Washington played the most important role in the American War of Independence and the founding of the country, it was honored as? Father of the United States? Also known as? Father of the United States? . Scholars compare him to Abraham? Lincoln and Franklin? Roosevelt, Woodrow? Wilson tied for the greatest president in American history.
