The official birthday of the United States is counted as July 4th, 1776, the day Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence. After that date, unsigned copies were widely circulated, and the date of the declaration has come to be considered the official date. However, the "official" Declaration papers displayed in the Library of Congress -- the ones we usually see reproduced -- were not signed by all of the delegates until about August 2, 1776.
