On July 4, 1776, the American colonies released the Declaration of Independence. The document, one of the most radical for its time, sought to justify why the American colonies could no longer be ruled by Great Britain.

The intent of the Declaration of Independence was to peacefully request the freedom of the Colonies from English rule. We wished to become a nation independent from other countries with the right to create our own government. This would allow us to truly follow the intent to have religious freedom among other things, this being one of the major reasons many left Europe.

The Republic of the Philippines observes its Independence Day on 12 June each year, in recognition of the declaration of independence from Spain, even though that action did not immediately result in the true independence of the country.
The Declaration of Independence was the first document to justify a revolution against an established government. The Declaration has three parts. It starts with a statement of basic human rights that all people enjoy--"rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" It then goes on to proclaim that a just government is one that has the consent of the people being governed. This is the revolutionary action -- when a government fails to protect the rights of the people or is destructive of the rights of the people, then the people have the right to alter or abolish the government and form a new government that will be protective of the people's rights. The second part of the Declaration is listing of specific complaints the colonists had against King George III. The third part of the Declaration contains the actual statement of independence from Great Britain. MrV
