Detailed explanation-1: -Citation: Engrossed copy of the Declaration of Independence, August 2, 1776; Miscellaneous Papers of the Continental Congress, 1774-1789; Records of the Continental and Confederation Congresses and the Constitutional Convention, 1774-1789, Record Group 360; National Archives.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Declaration of Independence is made up of five distinct parts: the introduction; the preamble; the body, which can be divided into two sections; and a conclusion. The introduction states that this document will “declare” the “causes” that have made it necessary for the American colonies to leave the British Empire.
Detailed explanation-3: -Britain took the colonies under their control, rather than just providing them with security. Since Great Britain had, once again, transgressed their control of the colonies, the Americans had every right to revolt. Therefore, all of their actions that followed after Britain’s wrongdoings were justified.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Declaration of Independence was designed for multiple audiences: the King, the colonists, and the world. It was also designed to multitask.
Detailed explanation-5: -The Declaration of Independence expresses the ideals on which the United States was founded and the reasons for separation from Great Britain.
