25 févr. 1791 - 1st Bank of the United Sates
Description:
With a limited amount of specie, and a need for regulating state banks, Hamilton proposed the first national bank. This both established the precedent for having a federal government handle the issuing of paper currency and was a blow against strict constructionism as the creation of a bank was not expressly permitted in the Constitution.
