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.
The answer is c, loss of lands, loss of trade, and degradation of culture because when the European settlers came to Africa, they tricked the Africans into giving up their and set up colonies form the land they stole, for example, boers ( Dutch soldiers) tricked the Africans in South Africa to giving up the land and then the boers and Africans went to war and the colony of South Africa was made. Europeans took away their trading by making them jobs such as house cleaning and working at the plantations and stuff. Their cultures degraded by the Europeans teaching them Christianity, which they followed and they soom forgot about their original cultures.
I hoped my answer helped you. :)
