The declaration of independence was a very important document in declaring our independence from Britain. It shaped our country's laws and beliefs today and it formed our new nation. It gave us morals and more rules to follow as well. Hope this helps! :)
The Declaration listed the colonists' thoughts about freedom and government and outlined the reasons why they thought the British were being unfair. Think of the Declaration of Independence as a letter to the British explaining that the colonies wanted to be 'free agents' and form their own team.
