Yes. The most obvious one is France, which underwent a revolution of its own against its own king and queen over a ten year period, from 1789 to 1799. During that period, France went from an absolute monarchy to a republic. In 1789 the French National Constituent Assembly used the Declaration of Independence as a guide to drafting its own "Declaration of Rights of Man and of the Citizen." Thomas Jefferson even helped write it while he was in France. The Assembly first wanted to make clear the rights that citizens had prior to writing a formal constitution. As a sidelight, one point made in the Declaration of Rights of Man was a condemnation of the notion of the "divine right of kings." This was a philosophy that Thomas Paine had written about in "Common Sense", which greatly influenced the French people.

Is Declaration of Independence a noun?

Yes, the words declaration of independence alone are a noun, I believe. However, if one were to say "The United States Declaration of Independence," it would become a proper noun and therefore capitalized. I realize that to America, our Declaration of Independence is the only document of its kind and therefore is considered only a proper noun, but to other countries, it is not the same. It is a regular noun. When speaking of our document, they refer to it as the American Declaration of Independence.
