D. In the African country of Sudan
Answer:
To evoke in the audience shame for placing self-preservation above the good of the community.
Explanation:
Thomas Paine's "Crisis No. 1" is a political pamphlet that expresses the need for the colonies to revolt against the British monarchy and fight for their independence. This document would become one of the inspirations for the American war of Independence.
Paine states,<em> "the heart that feels not is dead"</em>, referring to those reluctant to participate in the revolt. According to him, those who join the revolt are giving their part to ensure a future for their children and the coming generations. His appeal directs more to those who did not join the cause while they have the chance to be a part of something history will always remember. He reiterates that <em>"the blood of his children will curse his cowardice who shrinks back at a time when a little might have saved the whole and made them happy."</em>
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
The Patriots were those that fought for liberty and independence; Loyalists were those that stayed loyal to Britain. The Sons of Liberty were a group against Britain and British taxes; they were the ones responsible for the British Tea Party, the dumping of British tea into Boston Harbor.
