The birth of the United States Of America was based off the sole document that laid the foundation for the birth of the United States. The Declaration of independence described as big step forward for the original 13 colonies to push forward for in the fight for recognition from Great Britain and also from King George . As this whole cause for the push for independence was of King George’s conflicting policies which was the spark for the push towards independence . Also the fact of how much the founding fathers had to go through when it comes to facing and fighting a war against the most powerful country especially when facing the British Army. Some of these causes was due to totally not having any representation at all and also of the high taxes that was placed on many goods in the colonies which anger the colonist which would lead to revolt and succession from Great Britain. They calimed that King George was raging a ”cruel war against human nature itself violating its most sacred rights of life , liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him”. Basically saying that King George was offering the colonist as scapegoats as an excuse for waging a cruel war. As this angered the colonists as this also motivated them to start considering writing the declaration of independence. Knowing the challenges that they will have to overcome in order to successfully defend their rights and there freedom .
