The Declaration of Unity was elaborated in 1917 in both Korean and Chinese, in order to call for a national convention with the aim of establishing an integrated independence organization, by fourteen independence fighters abroad. The document calls for unity among independence activists and the establishment of a provisional government of Korea in order to fight for the sovereignty of the Korean people. It is an invaluable resource that proves the diverse Korean independence movement activities carried out until 1917.
