Abstract
Thomas Paine wrote the “Common Sense” in the year 1776, which is an important pamphlet that mainly argued and advocated for the important need of all Americans in gaining the desired independence from the parliamentary and monarchical government system of the British Kingdom (Allen 2000). Ideally, this is the main philosophy or idea that is presented in Thomas Paine's writings; however, this paper will focus on understanding and explaining some of the important and finer details (Paine 2008). Additionally, one of the main reasons that were presented by Thomas Paine in his “Common Sense” book that was written in 1776 is that all of the Americans should focus on having their independence which is the natural existence of the pursuit of "human equality."Basically, what Thomas Paine actually does in his “Common Sense” is to focus on proposing an argument against Britain's divine rule of kings.

Key Words: Independence, Call to Action, England, British, Government, Monarchical, Common Sense, Democratic Republic
