Answer:
George Washington (1732-99) was commander in chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War (1775-83) and served two terms as the first U.S. president, from 1789 to 1797. The son of a prosperous planter, Washington was raised in colonial Virginia. As a young man, he worked as a surveyor then fought in the French and Indian War (1754-63). During the American Revolution, he led the colonial forces to victory over the British and became a national hero. In 1787, he was elected president of the convention that wrote the U.S. Constitution. Two years later, Washington became America’s first president. Realizing that the way he handled the job would impact how future presidents approached the position, he handed down a legacy of strength, integrity and national purpose. Less than three years after leaving office, he died at his Virginia plantation, Mount Vernon, at age 67. George Washington was born on February 22, 1732, at his family’s plantation on Pope’s Creek in Westmoreland County, in the British colony of Virginia, to Augustine Washington (1694-1743) and his second wife, Mary Ball Washington (1708-89). George, the eldest of Augustine and Mary Washington’s six children, spent much of his childhood at Ferry Farm, a plantation near Fredericksburg, Virginia. After Washington’s father died when he was 11, it’s likely he helped his mother manage the plantation.

<em>The 1919 League of Nations was the first diplomatic organization which had as main goal to maintain peace, promote international cooperation and prevent another world war from happening</em>, it was created after Word War I and failed it's purpose and dissolved with World War II.
The League of Nations failed mostly because <em>of the absence of powerful nations such as United State</em>,<u> it was dominated by England and France which were imperialist nations that wanted to spread their empire</u> and some nations like <em>Germany and the Soviet Union were not allowed to join</em>. Another cause of its failure was<em> its structure, it required unanimous votes for taking actions</em>, which made very difficult to achieve goals and<em> when countries attacked each other the League of Nations couldn't do anything about it because it lacked it's own army</em>.<em> The League of Nations had to uphold the Treaty of Versailles</em> which placed Germany as the country who lost the World War I, which made the League of Nations seem not neutral, and Germans didn't respect it.
The League of Nations was dissolved and replaced with the United Nations after World War II.

"The Commission supports effective Americanization of new immigrants, that is the cultivation of a shared commitment to the American values of liberty, democracy, and equal opportunity. The United States is one of the most successful multiethnic nations in history. It has united immigrants and their descendants from all over the world around a commitment to democratic ideals and constitutional principles. Those ideals and principles have been embraced by persons from an extraordinary variety of religious and ethnic backgrounds, partly because they permit and protect religious and cultural diversity within a framework of national political unity."
