Question

which two ideas were expressed in paines common sense?

• enslaved men and women deserved to live free, vote, and own property.
• government may be a

ecessary evil\, but it didnt require a monarchy.

• the rise of an independent country in north america was inevitable.
• respecting treaties with native americans was in everyones best interest.

Explanation:

1. Analyze the first option: Paine's Common Sense focused on American independence from Britain and ideas about government, not on the rights of enslaved people. So this is incorrect.
2. Analyze the second option: In Common Sense, Paine argued that government is a "necessary evil" and that a monarchy (like Britain's) was not a good form of government for the colonies. This matches ideas in the work.
3. Analyze the third option: Paine argued for the inevitability and desirability of American independence, meaning the rise of an independent North American country (the US) was presented as inevitable. This is a key idea in Common Sense.
4. Analyze the fourth option: Common Sense had no focus on treaties with Native Americans. This is incorrect.

Answer:

B. Government may be a "necessary evil", but it didn't require a monarchy.
C. The rise of an independent country in North America was inevitable.
