Lafayette was born in 1757 in Chavaniac, Auvergne, France, into one of the oldest noble families in the country. Orphaned young and inspired by the cause of American liberty, he defied the French king and sailed to America in 1777 at the age of 19 to fight for the Revolution. He became a close aide to George Washington, who regarded him as a son. He played a crucial role in the American victory, including the Siege of Yorktown in 1781. Returning to France, he became a leader of the early phases of the French Revolution, drafting the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. He was imprisoned during the Reign of Terror and later spent time in exile. In 1824, he returned to America for a grand tour, where he was celebrated as a national hero. He died in Paris in 1834.
