The purpose of the Declaration of Independence is to declare the reasons and causes of the colonists to separate themselves from Britain. The Declaration begins with a short introduction called the Preamble. The Preamble explains the reason for the document, which is to declare the causes that have created the need for the colonies to "dissolve the political bands" with England, and to create itself as an independent nation. The preamble leads into the next section that is "long train of abuses and usurpations". This section describes how the people will take action in creating a new government for themselves. This gives the reasons of the revolution by explaining all of the wrongs that have been committed against the colonies by England. After these facts have been listed the next section details the ways that the colonies have responded to England's actions by trying to help the king to understand the injustice of England's actions. The final section lists specific functions that our new government has the power to carry out as a new nation among the other nations among the world.
