    Answer: C. Stated that all men are endowed by their Creator with the right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

    Explanation: The first and most important premise of the Declaration of Independence is the Enlightenment idea of people's natural right to life, liberty and the pursuit of personal happiness. This means that Enlightenment view and the basic determinant of the Declaration, is a view that Creator has been giving everyone an equal opportunity to realize these values.

    The Declaration denies the divine right of the king when it comes to the colonies, but not to the rest of the world if we consider that the US, since its inception, on the advice of George Washington, should have an isolationist and neutral policy, since it was a young democracy yet to develop and does not interfere with international affairs.

    As for the strict centralized government in Washington DC, it is not true, since the Declaration sought to achieve the natural rights of all people, that is, not another centralist government such as in London before independence. Government and democracy yes, strong, central government no.
