Answer 1

A . to prove that the colonists have no choice but to seek independence 

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) To prove that the colonists have no choice but to seek independence.

The Declaration of Independence was the official document that made America free from Great Britain. At this time, the Americans wanted the international community to know that their actions were not random. Rather, they were justified based on the acts taken by King George III. This is why Thomas Jefferson, the main author, lists several different tyrannical actions taken by King George III.
