Declaration of Independence created and signed. (4 Jul 1776 Jahr – 20 Aug 1776 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

The Declaration of Independence is adopted by the Second Continental Congress. Following a decade of agitation over taxes and a year of war, representatives make the break with Britain. King George III isn't willing to let his subjects go without a fight, and loyalist sentiment remains strong in many areas. Americans' primary allegiance is to their states; nationalism will grow slowly.
