The presidency of George Washington began on April 30, 1789, when Washington was inaugurated as the first President of the United States, and ended on March 4, 1797. Washington took office after the 1788–89 presidential election, the nation's first quadrennial presidential election, in which he was elected unanimously. Washington was re-elected unanimously in the 1792 presidential election, and chose to retire after two terms. He was succeeded by his vice president, John Adams of the Federalist Party.
Washington had established his preeminence among the new nation's Founding Fathers through his service as Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War and as President of the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Once the Constitution was approved, it was widely expected that Washington would become the first President of the United States, despite his own desire to retire from public life. In his first inaugural address, Washington expressed both his reluctance to accept the presidency and his inexperience with the duties of civil administration, but he proved an able leader.

An enormous question.
The Holocaust, which seems to have been the result of German Chancellor's "final solution" to the "Jewish Problem". Kill them all, by the cheapest means possible. And, to do that, the chancellor had to "get his supporters to buy his message". That was done by nationwide indoctrination, anything from banning "Jew physics" (a blunder of a ban, because Jews, Professors Einstein and Lisa Meitner to name but two associated with the Nobel prize in physics, played important roles in developing nuclear weapons), through to indoctination of the dreaded "Hitler youth", via "krystalnacht" and the mass transportation of as many Jews as could be tranported to death camps "hidden" in eastern europe near the USSR border.
And this is only part of the start to the answer.
It may well be impossible to do this subject justice anywhere ...
Time is comprehensible to us as long as we can track it in terms of seconds, minutes,
hours, days, and years, but once we go beyond the realm of our own time experience, our
perception tends to get fairly vague. For example if I were to ask when Napoleon
[1769-1821] was born, I would be lucky to get an answer like "sometime in the middle
of the 18th century". We basically have trouble to visualize time intervals that are
significantly larger than our own lifespan.
In the <em>Leatherstocking Tales</em>, James Fenimore explored themes like pioneer life, the American Frontier Adventures, family traditions, conflict between different views of the land, hunting, the vanishing of the wilderness life, explorations, and also the individual survival of a particular kind or group.
