The Declaration of Independence was written during the American revolution (B).

The Declaration of Independence was written during the American Revolution. The Continental Congress voted to declare American independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain on July 2, 1776.

The Declaration of Independence was first drafted by Thomas Jefferson and edited to the final version by the Congress. The final text of the Declaration of Independence was adopted by Congress on July 4, 1776.

The Declaration summarized the colonists' motivations for seeking independence and severed their political connections to Great Britain. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
