The Declaration of Independence was signed by 56 delegates representing the thirteen American colonies. The signing took place on July 4, 1776, and continued in the following months as some delegates were not present on that date. Prominent figures among the signers included John Hancock, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin.
