What are the major political ideas contained in the Declaration of Independance? Are these ideas important today? Thinking about the people in your government. The of government is in the consent of the governed. When a government does not protect these rights, it is in the responsibility of the people to establish that government institute a new one.
Thinking about the people in your government. Patriots are brave because they really wanted freedom a lot. Loyalists were scared because they did not want King George III to get mad. Neutralists were afraid of both sides.
The origin of the government is in the consent of the governed. "It wasn't necessarily the fact that the colonists couldn't represent in the parliament it was more the thought that we weren't respected enough to represent the own government."
When a government does not protect these rights it is the responsibility of the people to establish a new one. When the colonists were appressed decided to start their own form of government, "illegal."
