Declaration of Independence

Yes,his mistakes in England made us draw up a document to make him stop the things we didnt agree with, after so we based our Declaration of Independence after the document and helped us work kinks out in our own government

There is no one single person that can easily be credited with any of the first 10 Amendments. However, one person can be given credit for pushing for the Bill of Rights as a whole, and that would be James Madison.

Two, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on the 50th anniversary of July 4, 1776.

Independence Day

To make woman man's equal in all aspects, except suffrage because that was a too advance notion at the time. It spurred the women's suffrage movement, which finally blossomed with Amendment 19 in 1920. It was drafted and signed at the Seneca Falls Convention led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

yes, new york did sign the declaration but they waited for a long time to.

It states "all men are created equal", however, in the context of the time, and this holds to much speech today, the word "men" is in the same vain as the term "man kind", pertaining to all members of the species homo sapiens. So, literally the Declaration states that all members of the human species are equal.

None. The Declaration of Independence is telling the king why the colonies are revolting. Jefferson never meant for it to be a foundation for government just an explanation of the ideas of enlightenment thinkers like Locke. The ideas WERE revolutionary in their concept because no one had said people had the right to choose or change a government, but that is how far it goes. It doesn't tell how to do it or what happens afterwards.

There are three factors that contributed to the movement for independence from Britain:

1. Thomas Paine's Common sense

2. Discontent among the colonists over king George restrictive trade policies

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.

The idea of the Declaration is just what it sounds like. It DECLARED INDEPENDENCE for the colonies, making them states and free from Great Britain. The Constitution was developed to outline the Government for the new country, and was created after the declaration.

Architecture is the one he is most known for.

take a strong interest in the good of society

~apex & a student .... a very important sudent *wink wink*

The exact meaning of this phrase has been debated quite extensively. The meaning and interpretation of such a simple statement has changed over time.

One meaning is the God created all human beings and gave them all the same status at birth.

Another meaning is that all human beings were granted free will, intelligence, and the same basic needs.

Some view the statement in a socialist sense - that all people ought to be completely equal at all times. Everything in society should be fair. No one should inherit property, for example, because that would be unequal. No one's rich dad should send them to an expensive college while another has to start work at age 18. This idea is in no way related to Jefferson's meaning.

Given that the statement is a key concept in the Declaration of Independence, most likely Jefferson was attacking the hereditary power of the King of England. He is saying that a king and a commoner are created equal.

Many people have pointed out that today "all men" is taken to mean "all people". At the time it was written, it really meant all men ... all males. Women would continue to have fewer rights than men in the new American society. But did it really mean "all men?" There was no question that at the time that Blacks and Native Americans were treated as lesser humans. They were not to be treated as equal in any sense of the term.

there were 27 grievances against the King.

These are: . The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within. He has endeavoured(sic) to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation: -For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

-For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states:

-For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world:

-For imposing taxes on us without our consent:

-For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury:

-For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offences

-For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies:

-For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments:

-For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign mercenaries to compleat(sic) the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured(sic) to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

The settling of the Jamestown colony in 1607 was based on financial goals, not religious, despite whatever role religious convictions played in the colony's growth and daily life.

For the Massachusetts Bay colony, religious expression was the core motivation of the colonists involved, with trade activity and resource-development, also important factors.

Two religious groups from England both came to the New World. The Pilgrims came to escape religious persecution. Their soon to be neighbors, the Puritans came to practice what they believed to be the "pure" Protestant religion in England the Anglican Church.
