Independence Day USA July 4

July 4, 1776 Declaration of Independence was signed. At that time, residents of 13 British colonies, which were located along the east coast of today's United States territory, waged war with the English king and Parliament, because we believe that those treated them unfairly. This was clearly articulated in the Declaration of Independence, which was signed by leaders of the colonies. For the first time in an official document of the colony they became known as United States of America.
