I think the Founders - especially Washington - would be _horrified_ by how every aspect of national government has devolved into absolutist political factions, most aspects of private life are politicized, and that competing ideas are engaged not with conversation but condemnation The society we have now is a shadow of the Constitutional Republic that has sustained itself for over 200 years, and we're overdue for a major course correction.

Many of those original politicians who wrote the framework for our country served their country(s) for many decades. If you add in Washington’s army service under Britain, he served just short of 50 years until his death in December 1799. He even returned to service under Adams after he chose to not seek a 3rd term. Most all of them were actually career politicians. It has always been that way. You really don’t want term limits.

[@George_Washington_1776]

I was reading Washington's Farewell Address the other day and something that seemed so interesting to me was how much he stressed that we remain neutral in domestic and foreign politics. He detested parties, although he did admit they could be useful in certain times, but my favorite quote was this one: “The Nation, which indulges towards another an habitual hatred, or an habitual fondness, is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest. ... The Nation, prompted by ill-will and resentment, sometimes impels to war the Government, contrary to the best calculations of policy. The Government sometimes participates in the national propensity, and adopts through passion what reason would reject; at other times, it makes the animosity of the nation subservient to projects of hostility instigated by pride, ambition, and other sinister and pernicious motives. The peace often, sometimes perhaps the liberty, of Nations has been the victim.” He was one of the first advocators of American isolationism and neutrality and he believed that our foreign policy should just be trade and commerce-based. We could use our geographical distance from Europe to avoid their pointless wars. How things have changed.

If you listen to the video again, you'll notice that the period you are referring to is during the Articles of Confederation, BEFORE the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Constitution created a Strong central government. which did NOT exist under The Articles of Confederation. There was NO executive branch, and The Congress was led by the President, whose term was but one year long. That's why you'll hear some people call Washington the Seventh or Eighth President. Essentially, under The Articles, we had a weak central government that could not tax or regulate the states. While many are conditioned by modern day politics to believe that this is a great idea, it was a disaster that could have easily meant the end of the country. Thankfully, The Constitution was crafted to create a stable country ,that could survive.

​@bigploppa154 That's not true at all. First, you had the Continental Army, which was led by Gen. George Washington. The Congress that existed at the time was in charge of paying the soldiers as well as the hiring and firing of top officers. The Continental Army was supplemented by the various state militias which were obviously directed by their state congress. The Continental Army was paid by Congress. After the fighting ended, the back payment of soldiers was a very big deal. It had been ages since soldiers had gotten paid and they couldn't feed their families. Soldiers were threatening to abandon their posts while others were threatening a coup. Alexander Hamilton wrote to George Washington and told him that hearing from the General himself could help sway Congress. Washington refused, instead addressing his soldiers in what would be known as the Newberg Address, which completely changed the tone of his men. The Continental Army was an army in name and reality, and payment was expected and had been provided.

“After America actual won it’s independence and became a functioning nation” Functioning’s a strong word

[@DoReMi123acb]

Rome wasn't built in a day.

[@FlyingAlfredoSaucer]

Not really, as it was a totally functioning state from 1785-1861 and a partially functioning wartime state during the civil war and still fully functional from 1865-2001. 9/11's political and social impact is what made this nation what it is today, though it was going this way since the late 1980s, it wasnt in full swing until recently. And even then our country is still functional, if much less so than before.

[@jasonmiller6371]

Great informative video, thanks. I think one lesson to learn from it was after the war, there were many different opinions about what the country should become. It took time to debate ideas and all sides had to make compromises to come together and form the first model for freedom and democracy in the modern world at that time.

If I'm not mistaken, dinosaurs hadn't yet been discovered. Hard as it is to believe, they're a fairly recent discovery.

[@thechosenone1533]

@@Red-Wolf-Ben Apparently a few ancient cultures did discover them and thought they belonged to dragons or some other mystic creatures.

A fascinating twist is that for about 20 days we had a Congress with no President. Congress was formed first and then the President sworn in a few weeks later. it is completely unknown what would have happened if an event during those 20 days had required executive action since all we had at the time was a legislative branch.

"The revolution is considered the backbone of American Democracy today" Democracy today: authoritarian oligarchy

[@jvsobolova6348]

It is more "Democracy" than Democracy. No one listens to the other side. Just bickering and refusing to pass the other side's bills because the party tells them to. Republicans and Democrats should be ashamed of what they did to the United States.

@@non1263 It's funny I see it as the exact opposite. Democrats like Joe Biden are centrists while Trump is going full out authoritarian nationalist.

Am I like the only one who noticed that the Frill de Shoulder Military disappeared after the American Revolutionary War ended? I really wish I lived back in those days. Especially those pioneer hats.

I was raised in FL. Most ppl don't know that the oldest established city in America is St Augustine. Would absolutely love it if you could do a video on FL and Juan Ponce de Leon. FL has so much history good and unfortunately bad. Was home to many Native Americans. You can still find Native American artifacts on almost any land. I went to Calusa Elementary School in New Port Richey FL the first year it was opened. Named after the Calusa Native Americans

It didn't belong to the USA until 1821 , before then it was part of the Spanish colony,, then British for 20 years, then Spanish again, finally they sold it to the USA ( in Florida I believe)

Jesus was born to a virgin, turned water to wine, taught, healed the sick, raised the dead, casted out demons, walked on water, and calmed the storm, among many other things. He was killed, and three days later He rose from the dead. Forty days later He ascended into heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father. He is returning very soon, but before He does, Satan, the devil, is coming to pretend to be Jesus. Satan is an angel, and he will have certain supernatural powers with which to try to fool everyone. He will, for example, be able to make fire come down from heaven in the sight of men. He will only be on earth a short time before the real King of Kings, Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, returns. When the real Jesus comes we will all be transformed into our spiritual bodies at the same moment. Jesus came to offer forgiveness of sins and eternal life to anyone who believes and calls on His precious name. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; - Romans 3:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. - Romans 6:23 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. - John 3:16-18 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart. - Psalm 32:11 Help spread the message Bitcoin: 36a1caaMMYv8SLffwYhypdUrsSU2hDd1Nu Etherium: 0xd69d77932D80c0315163527C094f1C9aae0E31eD Dash: XmmJZqnchyL9GK1JXavi2b2zbvC1iGV4jR Litecoin: MCQHG8N2o1oZ2dDLyC7LjLQACf8hkRYprb Buy cryptocurrencies here: www.coinbase.com/join/rodger_b5a
