They both express the theme that women are as capable as men.

Explanation:

The excerpts from "The Royal House of Thebes" and "The Story of a Warrior Queen"  are similar because both express the theme that women are as capable as men.

Both stories present the idea that women are as fearless and determined as men. Antigone and Boadicea are two female characters that are convinced of what they want and they know how to reach it. Furthermore, they are both tragic heroines. In "The Royal House of Thebes", Antigone sacrifices her own life by disobeying Creon and burying Polyneices, her brother. Moreover, in "The Story of a Warrior Queen", Boadicea, the great queen, decides to poison herself before being attacked by her biggest enemies: the Romans.

read this passage from the crisis. what rationale is paine using for going to war with great britain? my own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. not all the treasures of the world, so far as i believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for i think it murder; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am i to suffer it? what signifies it to me, whether he who does it is a king or a common man; my countryman or not my countryman; whether it be done by an individual villain, or an army of them? if we reason to the root of things we shall find no difference; neither can any just cause be assigned why we should punish in the one case and pardon in the other.

it would lead to independence from britain

it would be an offensive war
