The Actual Declaration of Independence was derived from two major sources. First Plakkaat van Verlatinghe (http://www.h4.dion.ne.jp/~room4me/docs/abj_dut.htm) the Flemish Declaration of 1581, originally written in 1128 and secondly, the British documents expressing dissatisfaction with James the 2nd, not King George. The Declaration did not establish laws or rights, but established a state of war through dissolution.
