Benjamin Franklin is the only one of America's founding fathers to have signed all three of their foundational documents: The Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the 1783 Treaty of Paris. These documents underpinned the establishment of the United States of America as a sovereign country. In addition to being a prominent politician, Benjamin Franklin was a prolific writer, fervent naturalist, and determined inventor.
