Hey The 4th of July is a big day in America. . It is the day on which public holidays are celebrated, on which tradition calls for people to go out in under the sun and use the legendary fireworks.

He remembers these days United States of America freedom since they had ceased to be a British colony on July 4, 1776. On that day delegates from the thirteen colonies signed in Philadelphia declaration of independence which had previously been approved by the so-called “Committee of Five.” It included John Adams (a member of Massachusetts), Benjamin Franklin (Pennsylvania), Thomas Jefferson (Virginia), Robert R. Livingston (New York), and Roger Sherman (Connecticut). The signatories were two later presidents of the union: Jefferson and Adams.

The proposal was written Jefferson which he did, by letter in less than 17 days. Finally, after some changes proposed by his colleagues, he submitted it to the Continental Congress, which signed it on the day of independence of the United States.

Afterwards I asked the studies whether the signing had taken place at all that day. The fact of the time invites us to think that the signatures of the delegates were made at a later time, apart from the statements of some of the participants. In any case, the date is marked in the history books as the independence day of the United States of America.

This day was followed by an exercise between the contingents, commanded by the general George Washington and the army George III . The conflict lasted until 1783, when the Peace of Paris was signed, recognizing the independence of the United States of America.

In the beginning, Spain knew that it was not a good business to help the state with the characteristics of the United States of America, which was essentially an Anglo-Saxon nation. Moreover, the new status is common the borders of Spain which could reveal certain pains in Central America.

But the possibility of harming the British Empire is very tempting King Charles III The Spanish monarch at that time. Finally, after the intervention of the most glorious Duke of Louisiana; Bernardus de Galvez The rebel side won and brought enormous benefits to the Spanish Crown: Majorca was recovered and Florida was obtained.
