Interesting history that demonstrates the huge difference between the central government under the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution.

Really? Do you know what "president" meant in that context?
It had nothing to do with the office created by Article II, which was practically designed with George Washington in mind.

You're an idiot.
And Hanson was the first leader only because Washington turned it down.
There's a reason Hanson's government failed.

My first thought as well. Anyone who took high school American history should know this.
Washington was the first president under the constitution, but America existed before then and had Hanson as their president.
