Answer 1

- The Colonies have all the power of any other independent nation.

- The Colonies are declaring independence.

Answer 2

The Colonies have all the power of any other independent nation.

The Colonies are declaring independence.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given passage, we can infer that these colonies are "Independent States", free to do what they feel is the best for themselves. They are also "Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown", making them an authority and self governing body on their own right. And they are also at the liberty to do whatever other Independent States may do. So, this means that the colonies have the same power as other independent states.

Thus, the correct answers are options 2 and 5.
