How was the Declaration of Independence viewed when it was first written?

1 answer:

4 0

The Declaration of Independence was written in 1776 by the Continental Congress. It was viewed as a document of the people wanting to Declare their independence from Britain. After all the taxes/laws the colonists have gone through, they had enough (Stamp Act, Sugar Act, Townshend Act, Intolerable Acts, etc.) Almost all colonists viewed it as their ray of "hope." There are a few loyalists who disapprove, though.

Finish this simile "The Continental army's victory in the American Revolution was like..."

S_A_V [24]

Well, a simile can include "like" or "as," so you could say, "The Continental Army's victory in the American Revolution was as powerful as a bolt of lightning." Unless you have to use "like," then it could be, "The Continental Army's victory in the American Revolution was like a power-punch to their enemies."

Hope this helps!
