What year did the Declaration of Independence get adopted?

The Declaration of Independence was adopted in 1776, which marks a pivotal moment in U.S. history as it signified the Thirteen Colonies' formal separation from British rule. This declaration, drafted primarily by Thomas Jefferson and adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4th, proclaimed the colonies' desire to be free and independent states. The adoption of this document laid the foundation for the establishment of the United States and articulated key principles of democracy and individual rights, influencing future democratic movements worldwide.

The other years listed are significant in their own right—1783 marks the end of the American Revolutionary War with the Treaty of Paris, 1791 is notable for the adoption of the Bill of Rights, and 1765 was a year associated with increasing colonial discontent that led to the independence movement—but none of these directly relate to the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.
