Declaration of Independence


      The declaration of Independence was a document accepted by the continental congress on July 4 1776, announcing that the Thirteen Colonies where now independent Fro  The British Empire The declaration itself as written by Thomas Jefferson, and it contained an explanation of why does the Thirteen Colonies were proclaiming their independence from the British. The declaration contained many grievances against king Gorge the Third, it also contains a phrase that is to be said as “One of the best-known sentences in English Language” and also known as "the most potent and consequential words in American history". The lines follow like this:

       “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, among these are Life, Liberty, nad The persuit for Happines .”

 By our times, the constitution is kept under strict surveillance; a copy is usually presented to the public in The National Achieves in Washington D.C. The date of its signing has been controversial. Most historians have concluded that it was signed apparently a month after its presentation, on August 2, 1776, and not on July 4 as is commonly believed. The constitution was signed by 56delegates on the Continental congress.
