The first permanent English settlement was in Virginia.

The first official Thanksgiving was in Virginia.

The first elected legislative assembly in the new world was in Virginia.

When the Founding Fathers needed a call to arms, it was given by a Virginian.

When the Founding Fathers need someone to write the Declaration of Independence, a Virginian answered the call.

When the Founding Fathers wanted someone to write the Constitution, a Virginian answered the call.

When the Founding Fathers wanted to elect someone to lead this new, great nation, they turned to a Virginian.
