Thomas Paine (1737-1809) exposed his views on monarchy and hereditary succession on<em> his famous pamphlet Common Sense</em>.

Thomas Paine stated that all men were created equal by God's grace<em> so it made no sense that a man should have the right to rule by birth</em>. Thomas Paine exposed that no king should be trusted with so much power, and that a nation needed a prepared and educated government where only the law is king, therefor only the law should rule.

Answer:

Paine's essay considers monarchy and hereditary succession to be evil, unjust, and degrading to humankind: "the monarchy and succession have laid but the world in blood and ashes." In his essay, Paine implies that not all kings come from noble, honorable origins. He stipulates that the tradition of king was started by heathens (pagans) and was foolishly followed by Christians even though certain sections of the Bible criticize the monarchy.

What similarities did the movement for the abolition of slavery share with the feminist movement in the nineteenth century?
kotegsom [21]
First, it needed to be said that slaves got much worse treatments and we couldn't get around that.
But if we have to found a similarity it would be the restrictive nature that society imposed on both social groups.
For example, compared to men, women are much more likely to be controlled by their family in choosing the job they should take and the partner that they should marry.
