Common Sense was an instant
best-seller. Published in January 1776 in Philadelphia, nearly 120,000 copies
were in circulation by April. Paine's brilliant arguments were straightforward.
He argued for two main points: (1) independence from England and (2) the
creation of a democratic republic. Paine avoided flowery prose. He wrote in the
language of the people, often quoting the Bible in his arguments. Most people
in America had a working knowledge of the Bible, so his arguments rang true.
Paine was not religious, but he knew his readers were. King George was
"the Pharaoh of England" and "the Royal Brute of Great
Britain." He touched a nerve in the American countryside.

Answer: Abbé Sieyès and the Marquis de Lafayette
Details:
Abbé Sieyès was a prominent clergyman in France who supported the rights of the common people. The Marquis de Lafayette was a member of the nobility who had fought in America's war for independence against Britain. Their document was written in consultation with Thomas Jefferson of the United States, who had drafted the Declaration of Independence.
The Declaration of Independence (1776) asserted the American colonies' decision to break away from British government. It included the same Enlightenment ideals of natural rights and liberties that would characterize the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen produced later (1789) in France.
The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen was approved by the National Assembly of France on August 26, 1789, in the early months of the French Revolution.
