Venezuelan Declaration of Independence
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By means of the signing of the Venezuelan Declaration of Independence on July 5, 1811, Venezuelans of the time took the decision, supported by several politicians, of breaking away from the Kingdom of Spain and to build a new nation to split the premises of equality between individuals, abolition of censorship and dedication to the freedom of expression as a constitutional principal, premises that are radically opposed to the political, cultural, and social practices that had ruled during three hundred years before.
Action of meaningful courage for all Venezuelans, legitimate heirs of the more enduring and inalienable legacy of the 5th of July, to hand over to the inhabitants of this territory, to the whole society, the sovereignty on their public subjects.
