Explanation: The reasons for attracting attention to world powers such as France and Spain by the colonists i.e founding fathers are both political and practical. The political reasons are reflected in the fact that it was necessary to attract the attention of the world and to spread the idea of an independent United States of America, which at that time was something completely new and in relation to the ideas on which the USA was founded. These were the ideas of the Enlightenment, still only used in America at the time, and this idea needed to be spread to the rest of the world.
The practical reasons are that it had to have allies in a military sense, because Britain had an extremely strong army, and it was also necessary to have allies to finance the Revolution, more specifically lending, loans, etc.
