On this day in 1776, the Second Continental Congress declared that the 13 American colonies were united, free, and independent states. However, it wasn't until July 6, 1776, that the first translation of the Declaration of Independence was shared in Pennsylvania for its large German-speaking community. From the birth of our nation, we've recognized the importance of communicating across language barriers. Happy Independence Day! 🎆 #July4 #IndependenceDay

Henry Kissinger, a visionary, and a powerful diplomat, solved many important problems of the 20th century. He has shaped the world order we’ve been living in. Even in his late nineties, he wrote an interesting book on leadership “Leadership: Six Studies in World Strategy”. Worth reading. May he rest in peace. #HenryKissinger #diplomacy #leadership #USA #coldwar

On this day in history 06/09/24. In 1815 at the of the Congress of Vienna, a new European political situation was set. The Congress of Vienna of 1814–1815 was a series of international diplomatic meetings to discuss and agree upon a possible new layout of the European political and constitutional order after the downfall of the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. Participants were representatives of all European powers and other stakeholders. The Congress was chaired by Austrian statesman Klemens von Metternich, and was held in Vienna from September 1814 to June 1815. The objective of the Congress was to provide a long-term peace plan for Europe by settling critical issues arising from the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic Wars through negotiation. The goal was not simply to restore old boundaries, but to resize the main powers so they could balance each other and remain at peace, being at the same time shepherds for the smaller powers. More generally, conservative leaders like Metternich also sought to restrain or eliminate republican, liberal, and revolutionary movements which, from their point of view, had upended the constitutional order of the European ancien régime. Some historians have criticised the outcomes of the Congress for causing the subsequent suppression of national, democratic, and liberal movements, and it has been seen as a reactionary settlement for the benefit of traditional monarchs. Others have praised the Congress for protecting Europe from large and widespread wars for almost a century. Now you know.

As we celebrate this sacred day for American and international democratic legitimacy, let us reflect on the following premise for the future of democratic stability: Generations Z and Alpha are watching how we speak and act towards each other. These observations will become their behaviors and form their character. If all they witness is a society that engages in virulent language, castigating individuals with different political opinions as evil, what will their character be? What will democracy become? After all, the character of a democratic nation is the character of its citizens.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." - Preamble to the Declaration of Independence Learn more about this founding document by visiting the National Archives website: https://lnkd.in/dvx5EkH #FourthofJuly #July4th #Independence #USA #America
