Consignment - Independence Day 

For 231 years Americans have been celebrating the formal adoption of the Declaration of Independence. Though open conflict had existed since April, 1775 on July 4th, 1776 the announcement was made that the thirteen rebelling colonies could not reconcile with Great Britain and that a new nation had been formed. Every year since Americans have celebrated the event with fireworks, parades, and picnics.
