Explanation:
Thomas Paine wrote his "Common Sense" as a from of an argument, propagating the independence of America from the British rule. In it, he touches on the topics of government and society, monarchy and the rule of succession etc. He challenged the authority of the British government in their colonization of the American states. Paine also said that since man ruling over another man is a sin, as found in the Bible, so also Britain's rule over America is unacceptable according to Christian values. He even pointed out that if the order of succession is hereditary, then considering the nationality of the present king of England, William the Conqueror who is French, Britain should be under the rule of the French. He advocates for the British government to leave America, and the Americans to fight for their independence against the colonizing rule of the British.
