Who were the first five presidents of the United States?
The right answer to this question provides a list of those persons who were sworn into presidential office after the ratification of the United States Constitution, which took effect on March 4, 1789. All the persons listed were the Founding Fathers of the country and played an important role in shaping the function and responsibilities of the future American presidents. Every proud American is, of course, to remember their names and respect the early history of the nation.

Oh ffs... Do you understand the meaning of the World Wide Web? This site is NOT JUST FOR AMERICANS. Do you honestly think history classes in other countries are about US history? Oh, and it's 'breeze'.
Lydia Coutts
No, everyone doesn't. The World does not revolve around the USA, though many Americans seem to think it does. Europeans like me have over 2,000 years of our own history to learn.

Jack Kircher, There are people from other parts of the world who would have no idea and I am of those people, how would you feel if someone asked the same question , for instance, the first 5 Prime ministers of Australia, would you know that?. and as Lydia has pointed out , it is breeze not breese but we all make mistakes, it just annoys me that you expect everyone from all parts of the world to know the answer.

Lydia Coutts, I was born in the USA and I whole-heartedly agree with you, Lydia. Give jingoistic Americans like Jack hell.

boozulu, it’s never mentioned because it’s not true. Blacks, even freemen, had no political opportunities until after the Civil War during Reconstruction and, even them, their opportunities were short lived and essentially theoretical because the post-Lincoln federal government allowed the South to resume “slavery by another name” by the adoption of unrestricted Jim Crowe laws throughout the former Confederate states.

Carol Niswonger, Sorry but John Quincy Adams was not in the first five.

Jack Kircher, Of course this should be easy for educated US citizens but keep in mind that QC has an international membership. Could you name the first five Presidents, Kings, leaders, etc. of ANY other country currently existing? I doubt it.

Lydia Coutts, it is not only U.K., either, and there are plenty of questions about British history back to before the Magna Carta...
