First, I think you are asking about George Washington's history, the various achievements in his life. To answer the question "Who was George Washington" (the pronoun "what" is usually used for things, while we use "who" when asking about people), this requires considering Washington's many achievements, since they are all part of who he was.

Most Americans remember Washington as the first president of the newly created United States. But at other times in his life, he was known as a great military commander, whose leadership helped the American colonists to defeat the British and win independence; he was a delegate to the Second Continental Congress; he was involved in creating the Constitutional Convention in 1787; and he was a contemporary of men like Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton, with whom he later helped to shape United States government policy. Thus President Washington was many things in his life, and he is generally remembered in a very positive way.
