The declaration of independance was very important for many reasons, and set a foundation for modern American democracy. Democratically, it set out the rights of man in America. It specified how the leaders would be put into power, by the people. This gives the people the power to choose leaders who have the same ideals as them.
Some of the grievances were being angry at the king for taxes without fair representation, the kings soldiers in the colonies, and his obstruction of the administration of justice.
Altogether, the people of America were not able to continue functioning without a constitution of their own. This constitution helped them have order during the revolution, and they could fight for the same common causes.
