Question

The Declaration of Independence was neither a declaration of war (war had already broken out) or a legal document, so why was it so pivotal in our founding and why is it important today? (in at least 150 words)

Answer 1

Answer: The dec. of independence was a document stating that men from England wanted freedom to start a new country in America.

Explanation: Jefferson and the other men that signed it all came in terms. These people wanted out of England’s ways and rules. Starting a new country was ideal. Creating a document was the more formal way for the split however with war breaking out to gain the country back, the document was a threat to England leaders.
