Of the many arguments that Thomas Paine gives for America to separate from the British, which is the most convincing to you? Try to be as specific as possible.

American independence from England, it was unfair for England to have control over America while they were separated by the ocean and the two states were very far from one another. Just like Paine I find it absurd for Great Britain to rule over America, since America is large continent than Great Britain, which according to Paine is an island in another country, Europe.

Explanation:

Paine's brilliant arguments were straightforward. He argued for two main points: (1) independence from England and (2) the creation of a democratic republic. Paine avoided flowery prose. He wrote in the language of the people, often quoting the Bible in his arguments. Paine argued that it was absurd for an island to rule a Continent, that America could avoid European conflicts by being free of Great Britain, that London was too far from America to rule it, and that the King and Parliament would inevitably rule for Britains benefit, not Americas.
