Two similarities between the emancipation proclamation, and the declaration of independence.

Answer 1

1) Both documents were written to announce and establish the freedom and rights of people. The Declaration of Independence asserted the freedom and equal rights of the American colonies from British rule, while the Emancipation Proclamation declared the freedom and equal rights of slaves in the Confederate states.

2) Both documents were significant moments of change in American history. The Declaration of Independence was a turning point in the American Revolution and marked the birth of the United States as a new nation. The Emancipation Proclamation was a pivotal moment in the Civil War, which ultimately led to the end of slavery in the United States.
