さて、独立宣言は、アメリカがずっと前にどのように自国になったかについて語る本当に重要な論文です。それを書いた人々は、彼らに意地悪であり、彼らが望んでいたものを聞いていない他の国の王に腹を立てていました。そこで彼らはこの論文を書いて、彼らはもう彼の話を聞くつもりはなく、彼らは自分のルールを作り、自分の国になると言っています。彼らは、誰もが平等に扱われ、生命の権利、自由、幸福の追求など、特定の権利を持つべきだと言いました。そして、それが独立宣言がとても重要である理由です！
Okay, so the Declaration of Independence is a really important paper that talks about how America became its own country a long time ago. The people who wrote it were upset with a king from another country who was being mean to them and not listening to what they wanted. So they wrote this paper to say that they were not going to listen to him anymore, and that they were going to make their own rules and be their own country. They said that everyone should be treated equally and have certain rights, like the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And that's why the Declaration of Independence is so important!
