The declaration of independence begin with the words, “the unanimous declaration of the thirteen united states of america.” why might it be appropriate that these states consider themselves unanimous upon this? do you believe that the colonies could have declared independence without all of them doing this unanimously?

The correct answer is:

Answers will vary. Most students might note that it was necessary for Jefferson to prove

that the Continental Congress presented a united front to the world in order to prove that

independence was the true goal of the colonies. Others may state that since each state

provided signers to the document, it was obvious that all thirteen colonies accepted it.

As to the question of whether the 13 colonies could have declared independence if they

weren’t unanimous, answers will vary. Most students might state that independence

would be difficult without the support of all thirteen colonies, but some might say

independence without consensus was still possible. For instance, colonies that objected

could be absorbed into Canada or find a way to peacefully co-exist with those that

seceded.
