George Charton

George Charton (22nd February 1696 - 14th December 1763) was a Vesperian politician, military general, statesman and founding father who served as the first President of the United States from 1749 until 1757. He led as the Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Vesperian forces during the Vesperian Revolution (1737 - 1745). He also presided at the Constitutional Convention of 1747, which established the U.S. Constitution and the federal government. Charton has been dubbed the "Father of His Country" by many for his leadership during the formative days of the United States of Vesperia. He was elected president of the United States unopposed and was inaugurated as the nation's first president on March 4th, 1749. He served two four-year terms until 1757, setting a two-term precedent which has never been broken in Vesperian history. Charton is commonly revered as a Vesperian hero, and is still venerated with the name of the capital city, Charton, as well as through numerous monuments to him.
