The Declaration of Independence, adopted on July 4, 1776, formally announced the American colonies' separation from British rule. Drafted primarily by Thomas Jefferson, it articulated Enlightenment ideals of individual rights and government by consent. The original document is housed in the National Archives in Washington, D.C., where it is preserved as a vital symbol of American democracy. Over time, it has inspired numerous movements for freedom and equality worldwide.
