There was controversy between the North and
South for many years before the American Civil War. Some of the
Issues included states rights, tariffs and of course - slavery.

The Declaration of Independence was adopted on
July 4, 1776 declaring independence from Great Britain. The
document was written by Thomas Jefferson in only 17 days, during
the second continental congress. The Declaration of Independence
was not actually signed until August 1st, 1776, it was approved
on July 4. We celebrate July 4th every year, celebrating the
Declaration of Independence and The United States as a free and
independent nation - Independence Day.
