Answer:

The Common Sense doctrine marks a milestone in history, by not basing political decisions on doctrines based on history, religion, nation, honor or a priori notions, but on criteria endorsed by the experience of human beings and in the reason. Common sense paved the way for the Declaration of Independence of the United States, ratified on July 4 of the same year.

Explanation:

Common Sense is the title of a pamphlet that Thomas Paine published on January 10, 1776 - initially anonymous - during the American Revolution. Freed from any emotional ties to Britain, Paine argued that it was up to America to gain independence and establish a new, democratic system of government based on the principles of human rights. "Common Sense" had a huge success and caused a change of mind in favor of the Patriots.

nekit [7.7K]

Answer: Mountains (IF THIS IS AFRICA)

Explanation: . It is subdivided into a number of zones running north and south and consisting in turn of mountain ranges, tablelands and hollows. The most striking feature is the existence of two great lines of hollows, due largely to the subsidence of whole segments of the Earth's crust, the lowest parts of which are occupied by vast lakes. Towards the south the two lines converge and give place to one great valley (occupied by Lake Nyasa, or Lake Malawi), the southern part of which is less distinct due to rifting and subsidence than the rest of the system.
