2. George Washington became president in 1789. The conflict in the Northwest Territory was ongoing, and his presidency was a broader context. General St. Clair's defeat (1791) happened after Washington became president.
3. "e. General St. Clair was defeated" occurred in 1791.
4. "a. The Battle of Fallen Timbers" was in 1794, which was a decisive battle.
