They sent England The Declaration of Independence which says that England did not govern them well and that:
"We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, ... solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies ... are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. ... we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor."
Then enough Americans fought a war to prove that they believed in their declaration, and they beat the most powerful military in the world at that time out of their new country.
