Next week, America will celebrate its 250th Anniversary of the signing of The Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.  For reference, the Revolutionary War already began a year before with the Battles of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775.  Then eight years later, on September 3, 1783, at the Treaty of Paris, Great Britain recognizes the United States of America as a free, sovereign, and independent nation!
