It is indeed one of the epic episodes not just of the foundation of the great nation we see today, but also of the evolution of democracy in the world. The history of the United States is the history of its elected presidents, without whom the country would still be a mish-mash of several territories, native tribes and colonial possessions. America's war against colonialism would act as a catalyst of nationalism for several countries in the decades to come after the official surrender of the British at Yorktown in 1783. The War of American Independence was led by George Washington, the first President and one of the most influential chief executives in American history. The country's gradual rise and triumph as the leading international power in the 20th century, still observed today, is a legacy left by leading presidents like Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas Jefferson, and Franklin Roosevelt among many others, followed by their staff and individuals who coordinated in making a country known today as United States of America. There is a brief discussion of the American constitution following from the events relating to the great war of independence, the legacy left behind by George Washington and his first cabinet, up to the onset of the Civil War, the bloodiest indigenous conflict the US has ever faced. The legendary guidance showed by Franklin Roosevelt during the Second World War and the charismatic leadership of the late John F. Kennedy are some of the ending topics, concluding finally with the legacy left by modern presidents such as Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Contact: [email protected]
