Cyrus Griffin, President of the Continental Congress (usa) : All Data

Cyrus Griffin was the last President of the Continental Congress, serving from January 22, 1788, to November 2, 1788. He ruled over the United States during this brief period, which marked the transition from the Articles of Confederation to the newly drafted Constitution. While Griffin's tenure did not witness any major wars, it was a time of significant political and constitutional developments. The most notable conflict during this period was the Northwest Indian War, which began in 1785 and continued beyond Griffin's presidency. However, as the war started before his rule and extended beyond it, it did not directly occur during his tenure as President of the Continental Congress.
