I’m confused about this question.. “Imagine you and a friend from another country. are viewing the original parchment copy
of the Declaration of Indepetdence in Washington, D.C. Your friend wants to know why
the document is so important. What is your answer?”
The Declaration of Independence was important because it would later go on to allow America to proclaim itself as it's own nation and break free from the chains of an oppressive monarchy.
