And who better to be our first-ever leader than the general who won the war—George Washington!u003cbru003e u003cbru003eHe was the father of our country and made some incredible decisions that still affect how we live our lives today!

Then we’ll rush, rush, rush to the year 1803, when Thomas Jefferson continues the mission of creating America by making a risky decision to buy a lot of land from the French in the Louisiana Purchase, which more than doubles our size!u003cbru003e u003cbru003eUsing advice from the early presidents, first ladies, and a former U.S. congressman, the crew works to defeat an old nemesis. The question is— will it be enough?u003cbru003e u003cbru003eWhat are you waiting for? Bring your curiosity and let’s giddyup!
