robert morris, the first superintendent of finance appointed under the articles of confederation, proposed the bank of north america as a commercial bank that would act as the sole fiscal and monetary agent for the government. he has accordingly been called "the father of the system of credit, and paper circulation, in the united states." he saw a national, for-profit, private monopoly following in the footsteps of the bank of england as necessary, because previous attempts to finance the revolutionary war, such as continental currency emitted by the continental congress, had led to depreciation to such an extent that alexander hamilton considered them to be "public embarrassments". after the war, a number of state banks were chartered, including in 1784: the bank of new york and the bank of massachusetts.

during the third international vietnamese youth conference in 2003 in san diego, there were initial talks for creating a network of vietnamese student associations in north america modeled after the federal vietnamese students association of australia. through a collaboration of the union of vietnamese student associations of southern california along with the new england intercollegiate vietnamese student association, the first north american vietnamese student associations (navsa) conference was held in the summer of 2004 in boston, and with that navsa was born. only with the second conference in 2005 in chicago, was the name of navsa changed to the union of north american vietnamese student associations (unavsa) to better reflect that nature of this organization as a union.
