How did New york get its independence?

Question

I forgot which war :)

Answer 1

The obvious answer is with the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. However, this was formalized with the New York Constitution ratified 20 April 1777. Within this constitution it states in Article One:

“THIS convention, in the name and by the authority of the good people of the State, doth ordain, determine, and declare, that no authority shall on any pretence whatever, be exercised over the people or members of this State, but such as shall be derived from and granted by them.”

Then in 1783 within Article One of the Treaty of Peace signed between Great Britain and the United States under the Articles of Confederation in Paris, it names each State and declares them as Free, Independent, and Sovereign.
