What is America's Break-Up Letter

the Declaration of Independence

Explanation:

In June of 1776, a group of wealthy colonists met in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to discuss the problems being caused by

the tyrannical British government. This meeting of the Second Continental Congress was considered illegal under British

law. Amongst its members were some of the most famous Americans in history including Ben Franklin, John Adams, John

Hancock, and Thomas Jefferson.

The group debated whether or not to launch a full scale war against the British. While they could not agree on that issue,

they did agree on drafting a “declaration of independence”. Jefferson was chosen as the man who would write the

declaration. He spent two weeks working on the letter which would be addressed to British King George III. Jefferson was

heavily inspired by the ideas of the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment was a philosophical movement that originated in

Europe in the 1600s. The Enlightenment suggested that men were born with rights, regardless of where they lived or what

their government believed. Enlightenment thinkers believed that government should be controlled by the people.

Jefferson presented the final draft of his declaration to the Second Continental Congress on July 2, 1776. The body

debated changing various aspects of the letter. On July 4th, 1776 the colonists voted to adopt the letter and the

Declaration of Independence became one of the most important documents in American history.
