The Statue of Liberty is a national monument that is associated with Independence Day.The first description of how Independence Day would be celebrated was in a letter from John Adams to his wife Abigail on July 3, 1776.

However, the term "Independence Day" was not used until 1791.“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”Happy birthday, America.
