The U.S. Constitution went into effect on March 4, 1789. Do you know who the first four United States Presidents were under the new constitution?
A 2010 survey found that more than 25% of Americans didn’t know that we had gained our independence from Britain. China, Japan and France were all given as incorrect answers.
The results were even worse in a study by the U.S. Mint, which found that only 7% percent of Americans could name the first four U.S. Presidents. Here they are in order:
George Washington
John Adams
Thomas Jefferson
James Madison
Did you know who they were?
