MARKING AS BRAINLIEST DO ALL THAT SAYS !

Answer 1

The Revolutionary War is bubbling, and a series of events and details led up to it. Thomas Paine wrote Common Sense, a pamphlet explaining to the colonists how waging war to the British was evident. Up until that point, the colonist’s reaction to the Intolerable Acts cast upon them by the British (the quartering act and the stamp act, among some) were some boycotts. Nobody was especially too keen on rebellion except for the Founding Fathers and the Patriots. These groups ultimately created the Continental Congress (and Second Continental Congress). It was during these congresses that the Declaration of Independence was drafted, in which Thomas Jefferson famously states the rights of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”, which should be granted to everyone. John Locke was credited with having coined these terms before, ensuing further that “if a government/ruling party doesn’t uphold or respect those rights, then it is the public’s moral duty to overthrow them”. King George the third was the king of Britain at the time. Coincidentally, George Washington, who was the Commander in Chief of the Continental Army (the colonists’ army), had the same first name as his enemy.
