Plz help Thomas Paine argued that it was "common sense" to separate from Britain. Why does Paine advocate independence from Britain? What kind of government does he propose that the newly independent states should adopt? Why do you think this pamphlet was so effective? Did it get you "fired up"? Imagine that Thomas Paine has asked for your help in editing Common Sense. What changes would you make, provide examples of these changes or why you feel that no changes would be necessary.

Answer and Explanation:

1. Because Britain had tyrannical positions in relation to America. He claimed that Britain did not allow America to be represented in parliament so that it was possible to exploit Americans intensively, in addition to using America's work to finance wars and pay Britain's own debts.

2. Because he believed that America was in a position to be bigger and more powerful than England. He affirmed that this was a wish of God, otherwise God would not have given the Americans a territory so much bigger and richer than that of England.

3. Paine advocated that the new independent states assume a republican and federalist government, as he believed that this type of government would promote freedom, equality and honesty among its citizens. Furthermore, he believed that the government established in the colonies should be simple, the simpler, the more difficult to promote disorder.

4. Because the text written by Paine had an extremely simple, direct and very objective language that would go to the point and did not cover complicated academic concepts, which allowed absolutely the entire population to understand what he was talking about. This makes me "fired up" because a single text managed to move the entire nation.

5. I would not change anything in Paine's text, because I believe that everything that was covered in it and the way it was written was perfect for the goals that Paine wanted to achieve. It is exactly this that makes this text debated and promoted until today and it is not correct to modify something of such specificity and success.

it's lower nubia : ) good luck
