John Adams was sworn in as the second President of the United States on 04 March 1797. His inauguration took place in Philadelphia, succeeding George Washington. Adams served as the Vice President during Washington's two terms and was elected as President in 1796. His presidency faced challenges, including strained relations with France, known as the "Quasi-War," but Adams is notable for avoiding full-scale conflict and maintaining peace.
Adams served one term as President from 1797 to 1801, and he was succeeded by Thomas Jefferson. His contributions to the early years of the United States, both as a Founding Father and as the second President, are significant in shaping the nation's history.
