1. The King and Parliament treated the colonists unfairly by placing taxes on British goods, allowing soldiers to live in their houses without permission, etc.

2. Natural rights = Rights that everyone are born with and cannot be taken away

3. The Continental Congress approved the D.o.I (Declaration of Independence) and announced the separation of the 13 North American British colonies from Great Britain. It was necessary because they needed to convince the States that the time had come for the United Colonies to split and declare independence from England.

The American colonists wanted to be free from England because of what they saw as unreasonable taxes made by the king.

The meaning of the natural rights in the Declaration of Independence are life which means that one has the right to hold the ownership of their OWN life. Liberty which intends people to have lawful freedom without depriving anyone else of their freedom. Finally the pursuit of happiness means that people can do whatever makes them happy as long as it is legal.

The Declaration of Independence was written by the five man committee which includes, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman, and Robert R. Livingston in Philadelphia. The purpose of the writing the Declaration of Independence was to break free from England. It was necessary because it proposed a new theory of government and separated the 13 colonies from England's laws, which allowed them to be a free country.

Form of government, political form, regime of government, political regime, system of government, political system, system of government, model of government or political model are some of the diverse ways of naming an essential concept of political science and the theory of State or constitutional right. It refers to the model of organization of constitutional power adopted by a State in terms of the relationship between the different powers. The way in which political power is structured to exercise its authority in the State, coordinating all the institutions that form it, makes each form of government requires regulatory mechanisms that are characteristic of it.

There are very different nomenclatures to denominate the different forms of government, from the theorists of Antiquity to the Contemporary Age; At present, three types of classifications are usually used:

• The elective character or not of the head of state defines a classification, between republics (elective) and monarchies (non-elective).

• The degree of freedom, pluralism and political participation defines another classification, between democratic, authoritarian and totalitarian systems, depending on whether they allow the exercise of discrepancy and political opposition to a greater or lesser degree or deny more or less radically the possibility of dissidence (establishing a single-party regime, or different types of exceptional regimes, such as dictatorships or military juntas); At the same time, the electoral system through which the popular will expresses itself in participatory systems has had very different historical configurations (direct democracy or assembly, indirect or representative democracy, census or restricted suffrage, universal male suffrage or of both sexes, different determinations of the age of majority, racial segregation, inclusion or not of immigrants, and others), as well as very different ways of altering or distorting it (borgo rotido, gerrymandering, electoral fraud, pucherazo).

• The existing relationship between the head of the State, the government and the parliament defines another classification, between presidentialisms and parliamentarisms (with many degrees or mixed forms between one and the other).

These three classifications are not exclusive, but complement each other, so that a republic can be democratic (United States or South Africa) or non-democratic (China or North Korea); a republican democracy can be parliamentary (Germany or India), semi-presidential (France or Russia) or presidential (Argentina or South Korea); and a monarchy can be democratic and parliamentary (Spain, United Kingdom or Japan), undemocratic (Saudi Arabia or Vatican City) or be placed in intermediate positions (Morocco), very usually qualified in a more or less anachronistic way with terms of the historical forms of the monarchy (feudal monarchy, authoritarian monarchy, absolute monarchy).
