Answer:

D). Write the Declaration of Independence an separate from Great Britain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Great Britain's decision to tax the American colonies led to the writing of the 'Declaration of Independence' and alienate from Britain. The colonies were oppressed by the British government's over taxation and this taxation on 'imported goods' led to the creation of this document asserting America as a separate nation.

The 'Declaration.....' clearly stated that 'it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands' when they disregard the basic human rights to the citizens of the country and establishes America as a separate democratic country. Thus, option D is the correct answer as over taxation was the major reason behind the declaration of independence.
