THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE UNITED STATES Is a national holiday celebrated on July 4 in the United States.

This day marks the signing of the Declaration of independence in 1776, when the country proclaimed his formal separation from the British Empire. It all started when England implanted you anti-democratic measures to the colonies. As the people living in these already they were accustomed to democracy and above all already considered Americans, they reacted rebelliously. Also greatly influences the illustration that this brings the new thinking that all men are equal. With this thought the settlers established that as we are all equal so we also have equal rights. By this on July 2, 1776 the colonists are declared independent but it is celebrated on July 4 because the settlers decided to write a paper set that took this decision. This document is called the Declaration of Independence. Reasons The leaders were of the metropolis of Great Britain and the American colonists did not recognize the authority of the English politicians although they kept their loyalty to the King George -excessive tax burden. England taxed with innumerable taxes on the colonists and their activity. The tea tax was one of them, hence the Boston-excessive tea party bureaucracy, any paper or procedure that want to make should bear the stamp of the British Empire, i.e. should be printed in ring role. It was another way to bleed with tax the colonists-the British Government had the monopoly of trade with the colonies in North America. It was forbidden to trade with other countries, in the absence of competition, Britain paid a ridiculous price for the imported materials, what did not help to the settlers who felt exploited and wanted to sell their goods at a fair price.-had navigation laws prohibiting sail without permission from Great Britain, permission that had to buy, what prevented the free trade and maritime transport.

Initially the settlers were organized to negotiate an improvement in these abusive conditions, Great Britain refused to negotiate and sent soldiers against these "rebels". Really was the metropolis that initiated the independence of the colony, from there, George Washington, and the support of other Empires (France, Spain...) played a crucial role for achieving independence.
