The Declaration of Independence was primarily authored by Thomas Jefferson and was enacted on July 4, 1776. It was adopted by the Second Continental Congress as a formal statement declaring the thirteen American colonies' intention to separate from British rule. The document articulates the colonies' grievances against King George III and outlines the philosophical justification for independence.
