question: On what date was the Declaration of Independence officially signed?
Hint:
Signing of the United States Declaration of Independence . The signing of the United States Declaration of Independence occurred primarily on August 2, 1776 at the Pennsylvania State House, Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The 56 delegates to the Second Continental Congress represented the 13 former colonies which had declared themselves the \"United States of America,\" and they endorsed the Declaration of Independence which the Congress had approved on July 4, 1776. The Declaration proclaimed that the former Thirteen Colonies then at war with Great Britain were now a sovereign, independent nation and thus no longer a part of the British Empire. The signers\u2019 names are grouped by state, with the exception of President of the Continental Congress NAME_1; the states are arranged geographically from north to south.
