In 1776, King George III of England received a letter explaining why Congress voted in favor of declaring independence from British rule.

Spent more time being happy together than thinking of the implications until we laughed about it later. Fourth of July became a federal holiday only in 1870, and became a paid holiday for federal employees only as late as 1941. John Adams, a Founding Father and the second president of the United States, refused to attend Fourth of July events because he felt strongly that July 2 should have been celebrated as Independence day.

However, the average French citizen resented having to foot the bill for bailing out those pesky American colonials, so they overthrew their monarchy and killed the king. Despite being in the shadow of their gawd, the most impressive thing for them today was the aviation content. Colonists set up a mock funeral King George III of England to symbolise the end of British rule in America. On this famous holiday, the United States is actually celebrating its independence from Britain, which they see as a positive thing.

The most popular one is simply a picture of the Union Jack with the words ‘Happy Treason Day’ written on top. A lot of the memes also include the words ‘you ungrateful colonials’, referencing the fact that America didn’t want to be in control by the British. Well we tended to be a little more isolationist back then, the perk of having an ocean between us and the next continents in either direction.Given the benefit of 221 years of hindsight, it is truly sad for the planet that the Brits did not quell the uprisings with an iron fist. Or maybe Mother insisted no GA flying with the family in that contraption until it has two doors, side yokes and a parachute? Do enjoy your subversive and seditious day of blasphemous celebration and don't forget to say thanks to France… 😉 pic.

So now, when all the American’s are sharing their Independence Day memes on July 4th, many British people like to share their own Happy Treason day memes on social media. Though the Constitution provides a legal framework for the United States, the Declaration of Independence, with its strong assertion that "all men are created equal," strikes a chord with all Americans. The King of France, still licking his wounds from France's loss to England, gave the American colonists the money to do so. Fourth of July is celebrated all over the United States as the American Independence Day, but if you are British, you'd remember this day as Treason Day.
