A) Whigs and Tories; Catholics and Protestants

Explanation:

One of the highlights of Swift's narrative was satire and criticism of social and political issues. In "Gulliver's Travels" this was no different, as the author criticizes in a satirical and ironic way, several themes. Within these themes, we can mention the contradiction between the Whigs and Tories parties and between Catholics and Protestants. This criticism can be seen when Guliver observes the way of life in Liliput, where there are very superfluous discussions, but which cause wars between two different groups. These discussions are about how the shell of a boiled egg should be broken, or whether it is better to wear high heels or low heels.

With this, Swift criticized the way whigs and tories and Catholics and Protestants created huge problems for very small matters.
