After George Washington finished his presidency, he retired and went to his farm, Mount Vernon. He lived most of the rest of his life as a gentleman farmer, and when the US almost went to war with France in 1798, President Adams made him the highest ranking officer in the US Army (almost 200 years later, Congress officially defined the rank as "General of the Armies", which only he and General John Pershing ever held). The US wound up not going to war with France.
Hamilton finished his time as Secretary of the Treasury and became a political advisor. He helped Federalist candidates run for various offices and helped efforts to defeat Democratic-Republican candidates. He eventually pissed off Vice President Aaron Burr (a Democratic-Republican who Hamilton strongly opposed). Burr challenged Hamilton to a duel, and Hamilton was shot and killed.
