AI overview

Independence is when a territory or region breaks away from the control of another nation or empire to become a self-governing country, as happened when the Thirteen Colonies declared independence from Britain in 1776 and when various Spanish and Portuguese territories in South America did the same in the early 1800s. It matters because it allows people to establish their own government and determine their own political future rather than being ruled by a distant power.
