  1. Information is below./


  2. He choped down a cherry tree, crossed the delaware, and had s*x with his slaves.

  3. George Washington was born on February 22 1732, the first son of Augustine Washington and his second wife, Mary Ball Washington, on the family's Pope's Creek Estate near present-day Colonial Beach in Westmoreland County, Virginia. He was educated in the home by his father and older brother.

    George Washington was the first President of the United States, (1789–1797) and led the Continental Army to victory over the Kingdom of Great Britain in the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783).

    Washington was chosen to be the commander-in-chief of the American revolutionary forces in 1775. The following year, he forced the British out of Boston, lost New York City, and crossed the Delaware River in New Jersey and defeated the surprised enemy units later that year. As a result of his strategy, Revolutionary forces captured the two main British combat armies at Saratoga and Yorktown. Negotiating with Congress, the colonial states, and French allies, he held together a tenuous army and a fragile nation amid the threats of disintegration and failure. Following the end of the war in 1783, Washington retired to his plantation on Mount Vernon, prompting even King George III to name him "the greatest man in the world."

    Washington is seen as a symbol of the United States and republicanism in practice.
