The Declaration of Independence was signed and sent to King George III as a formal request to England for the freedom of the Colonies. King George refused the request and the Revolution began with the arrival of more English troops. During the course of the Revolution the Constitution began being drafted. Both documents were written by Thomas Jefferson with assistance from Benjamin Franklin.

he was considered very high in ranking and kept order during the constitutional convention. He mostly sat in his chair though and let all of the delegates do the talking, mostly he maintained order and "recondnized" people. or allowed them to speak.

The war for American Independence from Great Britain, (England), from 1775-1783 resulted in the individual colonial states uniting to form one nation, breaking away from the British Empire in 1776 when the Continental Congress issued the Declaration of Independence. The subsequent war and victory over the largest superpower in the world at that time, England, heralded the birth of the United States of America. The US Constitution was created 4 years later on September 17th, 1787 and is the basic blueprint, or business plan Per Se for how the Federal Government of the United States should be conducted. Though today there are many who argue much of the constitution has been usurped and its rights for the people slowly stripped away, the fact remains that without the revolutionary war, this timeless document would never have been written.

It helped us declare independence from Britain because at the time we did not have a voice in parliament and the king would not listen to us. It had to do with us because we wanted a voice in government, we did not want taxes without anyone representing us. Hoped this helped
