to explain to foreign nations why the colonies had chosen to separate themselves from Great Britain.The Revolutionary War had already begun, and several major battles had already taken place. The American colonies had already cut most major ties to England, and had established their own congress, currency, army, and post office. On June 7, 1776, at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Richard Henry Lee voiced a resolution that the United States should be completely free of England's influence, and that all political ties between the two countries should be dissolved. Congress agreed and began plans to publish a formal declaration of independence and appointed a committee of five members to draft the declaration.

Jefferson's purpose in writing the Declaration of Independence was to explain the reasons why the colonies believed independence to be necessary. He wanted to explain to the Crown, the people of England and the colonists why this step was important.

In order to do so, he lists the complaints of the colonists. He addresses this subject by using parallelism as he describes these grievances.
