From the Paper:
"
Because America has grown to such a large and powerful status we often forget that when we started we were nothing more than a handful of colonies with a few residents rebelling against the mother nation, Britain. Over the years this country has become so widely accepted as the most powerful nation on earth it is hard to imagine that at one time we were small and working to gain our foothold in the society of mankind. The 18th century was filled with turmoil as America struggled to be recognized as its own entity. Without fax machines and telephones there was no choice but to communicate with letters and other documents. It was in 1775 that King George the Third Proclaimed through documents that the colonies were indeed rebelling against England and he wanted England to do whatever it took to stop it."
