1. Why did the American colonists want to be free from England?
2. What is the meaning of the natural rights in the Declaration of Independence (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness)
3. (Most important question) How was the Declaration of Independence written and why was it necessary?
1. The King and Parliament treated the colonists unfairly by placing taxes on British goods, allowing soldiers to live in their houses without permission, etc.
2. Natural rights = Rights that everyone are born with and cannot be taken away
3. The Continental Congress approved the D.o.I (Declaration of Independence) and announced the separation of the 13 North American British colonies from Great Britain. It was necessary because they needed to convince the States that the time had come for the United Colonies to split and declare independence from England.
The American colonists wanted to be free from England because of what they saw as unreasonable taxes made by the king.
The meaning of the natural rights in the Declaration of Independence are life which means that one has the right to hold the ownership of their OWN life. Liberty which intends people to have lawful freedom without depriving anyone else of their freedom. Finally the pursuit of happiness means that people can do whatever makes them happy as long as it is legal.
The Declaration of Independence was written by the five man committee which includes, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman, and Robert R. Livingston in Philadelphia. The purpose of the writing the Declaration of Independence was to break free from England. It was necessary because it proposed a new theory of government and separated the 13 colonies from England's laws, which allowed them to be a free country.

How can the executive branch be chacked by the other two branches
Answer:
Explanation:
because one is stronger than the other
Answer:
Overriding a veto (Congress) and finding executive orders unconstitutional (Supreme Court)
Explanation:
If your question is open ended, then these are two options.
When Congress passes a bill to the President, he can either sign it into law, or veto it. Often, when Congress is of a different political party than the President, they can override his veto with 2/3 of the vote in Congress. It can eventually be checked by the Supreme Court.
However, if a President needs to get moving fast, or needs to run departments, he can sign executive orders. They aren't exactly laws, but they are enforced like them. However, if the President abuses this power, the Supreme Court can declare the order "unconstitutional."

c

Above all, urban specialists and craftsmen who had bolstered the Constitution amid sanction and who had generally upheld Adams in 1796 currently joined the Jeffersonians. Additionally, key pioneers like James Madison had changed his political position by 1800.
Madison presently rose as the ablest party coordinator among the Republicans. At base, the Democratic-Republicans trusted that administration should have been comprehensively responsible to the general population. Their alliance and beliefs would overwhelm American governmental issues well into the nineteenth century.
