The Declaration of Independence remains the strongest brief ever written in support of secession revolution.

Fixed it for you.

Revolution means "to turn", or "to rotate."

In civic terms, it normally means the rulers are thrown out, and new rulers take their place, much like Napoleon took the place of Louis XVI. Like Lenin took the place of Tsar Nicholas II. Like Mao took the place of Chiang Kai-shek.

In the colonies, the same people that ran things before the "revolution" were the same people who were running things after the "revolution."

Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn pointed out that the term "revolution" was a misnomer when applied to the American separation from Britain. He said the more accurate term was "American war of independence."

So at the end of 1793, King George III was still ruling the United Kingdom, and the elite ruling class in the colonies were still ruling their respective territories.

So it wasn't in fact a "revolution." It was a separation, which does in fact mean a "secession."
