The first President of the United States was George Washington, who took office on April 30, 1789. He served two terms until March 4, 1797, and is often referred to as the "Father of His Country" for his leadership during the American Revolutionary War and his role in the founding of the nation. Washington set many precedents for the presidency, including the tradition of serving only two terms.
