In the pamphlet "Common Sense" Thomas Paine urged the American colonists to declare and fight for independence from Great Britain. Thomas Paine insisted on swift independence in his pamphlet using clear and concise language, so that the general population could read it. He wrote it in a style that was like a sermon and connected independence to Protestant beliefs at a period of time where the colonies were very religious
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The whole declaration of Independence is a reasoned document that lists why the colonies were unhappy.
B is not mentioned. Those grievances had to do the George's miss use of power.
D is what the constitution does, not the declaration.
A is the exact thing that fathers did not want. Religion was not part of the process.
C is the last sentence of the second paragraph and it is the answer.
The Preamble of the Consitution of the United States is a brief introduction and it aims to explain the motives behind its creation, it can be read as follows:
We, the citizens of the United States, create this Constitution in order to establish the laws for the Union, establish a justice system, ensure stability, defend the Union, and promote general wellbeing and freedom for the current population and for future generations.
Answer:
The Townshend Acts of 1767-1768 placed taxes on items such as glass, lead, paint, paper, and tea. One of the Townshend Acts allowed general search warrants. British offi ials used these to combat smuggling— illegally moving goods in or out of a country. Then, Parliament passed the Tea Act. " This measure was not a tax. In fact, it allowed a British company that grew tea in India to import its tea into the colonies without paying the existing tea tax. This made the British company’s tea cheaper than other tea sold in the colonies. Still, Parliament’s control of taxes angered the colonists."
The colonists were not at all happy with this, and resulted in the Boston Tea Party, which involved throwing hundreds of thousands of barrels of tea overboard British ships [while dressed as Native Indians], resulting in punishment from Parliament, the Intolerable Acts, also known as the Coercive Acts.
