The 4th of July or Independence Day honors the birthday of the United States of America and the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.
Written by our founding fathers, mostly Thomas Jefferson, the document was an official declaration stating the
13 American colonies would be free and independant states. No longer would the Brirish control America.

"I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL."
