Description Alternate History of the United States of America, or as it's known in this timeline, the United Kingdom of America. Let's explore this world.

It all starts when the 13 Colonies rebel against the United Kingdom of Great Britain. George Washington in this timeline is a bit more prideful but is just as humble. Instead of favoring unity through disunity, George Washington preaches views of unity and a singular nation that would rival any European power. Being very influential, the patriots and sons of liberty unite into a singular faction known as "The Knights of Washington". The colonists, being more unified in their endeavors, have a much easier time fighting the British. In December of 1776, Washington and his 4,000 soldiers capture Trenton two days before Christmas in a bloodless stickup. How? Because the men where trained by Washington himself just before the attack to be the equivalent of a modern day US Marine. An early scouting party of 100 infiltrated the town and sabotaged the rifles and cannons, the first crossing. The second crossing was with Washington and the remaining 3,900 soldiers who took the Hessian soldiers prisoner and then hired them into the continental army, which greatly increased the size and power of Washington's forces. This drastically shifted the war and Great Britain was put on the defensive as Washington personally lead his highly trained army across the northern colonies. His many acts of heroism and divine demeanor made him almost a god among the continental army with the phrase "Stand with Washington" becoming the standard battle cry. The regulars where overwhelmed with many of them defecting to the continentals and some escaping in fear of Washington. With much aid from the French Forces and Russians Supplies, Washington and the Continental Army where victorious in the capture of Yorktown in 1778 and the American Revolution ended with the former 13 colonies becoming independent, all because of George Washington. Already a great leader and a hero to the Americans, George Washington symbolically crowned king by a centralized American Congress.

Nice, it's an interesting alternate history. It'll be interesting to see how this alternate America will handle things like the Native Americans (such as the Five "Civilized" Tribes in the South.
