Question

Which excerpt from George Washington's Farewell Address best expresses a major theme of the address?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

From the Farewell Address, one of the main themes was the need to keep the Union together and that the Political victories conquered by Americans need to be maintained.  

When George Washington said that to wage war on the government is "contrary to the best calculations of policy", he was concerned about the  intense regional identities because to Washington, Americans continued freedom involved the creation of a nation bigger than the sum of the states .

George Washington who was the first president of the United States delivered his farewell address in 1796. In the delivery of his Farewell Address, he expressed the core beliefs he hopes will guide the nation in the future.  Also, in his address, he expressed his strong belief in the principles of Republican.

George Washington's Farewell Address expresses another major theme, that despite the differences, there is a need for the nation to remain united. That was the reason he said that the just pride of Patriotism must be exalted over " any appellation derived from local discrimination".
