Answer 1

Answer:

C. ''Life Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness"

• The American Declaration of Independence, adopted on July 4, 1776, declared the 13 colonies' independence from British rule.

• Drafted by Thomas Jefferson and influenced by Enlightenment ideas, it outlined natural rights like life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and justified the colonies' separation by listing grievances against King George III.

• It marked the beginning of the United States as a sovereign nation and inspired democratic movements worldwide. Independence Day is celebrated annually on July 4th to honor this historic document.
