John Hanson, President of the Continental Congress (usa) : All Data
John Hanson was the President of the Continental Congress, ruling over the United States from 1781 to 1782. During his tenure, the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) was ongoing, with major battles such as the Battle of Yorktown in 1781 leading to the eventual victory of the American colonies. Additionally, the Second Anglo-Mysore War (1780-1784) took place in India, and the Russo-Turkish War (1787-1792) began shortly after Hanson's rule. However, as Hanson's rule only lasted for one year, his direct involvement in these conflicts may have been limited.
