The first president of the United States was George Washington, that is why the capital city is named after him.

John Hanson, so the story goes. He was the President of the United States Continental Congress, which was set up as the presiding government until elections could be held for the first Congress and government, when George Washington was elected by unanimous vote.

It was George Washington. Not John Hanson. The roll of John Hanson was more in line with the speaker of the house. A congressional position.
The articles of confederation was not working, hence why we drafted the Constitution.
And John Hanson was not the first presiding officer of congress. It was Samuel Huntington.
