Answer 1

Pamphlets like Common Sense and The Crisis #1 were published with the intention of influencing public opinion in favor of the very divisive cause of American independence from the British Crown. thus option B is correct.

What is the Thomas Paine crisis' major argument?

The colonists are urged by Paine to place a high value on victory and the freedom that follows because "the harder the battle, the more wonderful the triumph"—"what we gain too cheap, we esteem too cheaply," he observes, and "it is dearness only that gives everything its value." No. 1 crisis

It is crucial to keep in mind that many residents of the American colonies believed themselves to be primarily British.

Declaring the necessity for independence was viewed by many in the Colonies as treason. These pamphlets contributed to the debate and persuaded people of something that had previously been unheard of. A PR effort was required to increase American support for the revolution.
