The despot referred to in the Declaration of Independence is King George III of Great Britain. The colonies complained about his oppressive rule, particularly regarding taxation without representation, the dissolution of colonial legislatures, and the maintenance of a standing army in peacetime. The Declaration outlined these grievances to justify their break from British rule and assert their desire for self-governance.

In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson charges the English king, King George III, with numerous grievances that illustrate his tyranny and violation of the colonists' rights. He accuses the king of imposing unfair laws, maintaining standing armies in peacetime without consent, and denying the colonists the benefits of trial by jury. Jefferson portrays the king as a despot who disregards the principles of self-governance and the rights of the American people, justifying their decision to seek independence. Ultimately, these charges serve to rally support for the revolutionary cause and assert the colonies' right to self-determination.
