To connect the Declaration of Independence with the theme "Building a Democracy" you can show how the Declaration of Independence was a document that aimed at the freedom of the American people from a monarchical, limiting and without freedom government, with the intention of establishing a free nation, powerful and with the people as sovereign. This concept of sovereignty and popular freedom in the Declaration of Independence is one of the main building blocks of a democracy. In this case, this document allowed the conceptualization of democracy as a form of fair governance and that must be built in any nation that values a strong and happy people.
