"It proclaimed the freedom of slaves in ten states.<span> Because it was issued under the President's authority to suppress rebellion (war powers), it necessarily excluded area, not in rebellion – it applied to more than 3 million of the 4 million slaves at the time.

What does we have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

My interpretation will be done in three parts: The Preamble, the Body, and the Conclusion.

The Preamble is, in my opinion, the most eloquently worded statement on how government should function in relation to its citizens that has ever been written.  It is, in essence, a notification to the world that ‘these united Colonies’ have something to declare.

The Body is the list of grievances which the colonists had ‘suffered’ at the hands of the King.  They are justification for that which the colonists need to declare.

The Conclusion is the declaration itself.  Short and sweet, it says in no uncertain terms that these colonies can do all “Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do.”

Xelga [282]
They were both intended to create a government for the common good.
The Mayflower Compact was the first governing document written by Pilgrims on their way to the United States from England. This stated that they had the liberty to control their settlement without the King of England's rule, which they opposed to. The Iroquois Constitution was an oral document written on native artifacts, banding together the Iroquois Confederacy. Both were objectives to band groups of people together for the common good and for a good common use of governance.
