August 2, 1776 the journal of the Continental Congress records that "The declaration of independence being engrossed and compared at the table was signed." One of the most widely held misconceptions about the Declaration is that it was signed on July 4, 1776, by all the delegates in attendance.

John Hancock, the President of the Congress, was the first to sign the sheet of parchment measuring 24¼ by 29¾ inches

1. What date was the Declaration of Independence signed?

(June 7 1776) In Congress, Richard Henry Lee introduces a resolution, "That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be, free and independent states."
(June 11 1776) A committee is selected to write a formal declaration of the reasons for independence. Members include Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman, and Robert Livingston.
(July 1 1776) Debate on Lee's resolution begins in Congress.
(July 2 1776) Twelve delegations vote to adopt Lee's resolution. New York delegation abstains.
(July 3 1776) The Declaration of Independence is read in Congress and debate begins on the document. Wording of the document is of special concern.
(July 8 1776) In Philadelphia, the Liberty Bell rings signaling adoption by Congress of the Declaration.
(July 15 1776) Belatedly, New York delegation votes to adopt the Declaration of Independence.
(August 2 1776) In a formal signing ceremony, fifty members of the Second Continental Congress sign the Declaration of Independence.
John Hancock signed first, with a large hand right in the middle because he was the President of the Congress. The others signed by state delegation, beginning in the upper right in one column, and then proceeding in five other columns, arranged from the northernmost state (New Hampshire) to the southernmost (Georgia).

2.  What Country were the US declaring their independence from?

Great Britain

3.  Who were the two signers of the Declaration of Independence (Presidents)?

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams

4. Coincidentally,what date did they both die on?

They both died on July 4Th, 1826, the 50Th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.  Adam's last words were, Thomas Jefferson still survives.  He didn't know that Jefferson had died a few hours before.  The two were extremely bitter enemies for much of their political life, but in retirement laid aside their differences and became very close friends.
One other U.S. President, James Monroe, died on July 4Th, 1831, five years after Adams and Jefferson.  President Calvin Coolidge, on the other hand, was born on July 4Th. 

5.  What is the name of the first game introduced at Slotland back in 1998?

Golden 8

Here is a bonus for you!

Thomas Jefferson was chosen to write the Declaration of Independence over the much more qualified and more skilled writer Ben Franklin.  The reason behind this, according to Ormand Seavey, editor of Oxford’s edition of Ben Franklin’s autobiography, was that Franklin was known to put very subtle satire in just about everything he wrote and, quite often, nobody but he was smart enough to comprehend it until much later.  Knowing this document would likely be examined closely by the nations of the world at that time, they chose to avoid the issue by having the much less gifted writer, Jefferson, write it instead, with Franklin and three others to help Jefferson draft it.
