Question

Paine's idea that a "tiny island across the sea" shouldn't rule the continent of america is similar to what theory we studiesd earlier this year? A. Aristotle system of reasoning ( the theory of syllogism) B. The Benjamin Franklin effect C. Plato's symposium D. The elephant and rider theory

Answer 1

D. The elephant and rider theory.

Step-by-step explanation:

Paine's idea that a "tiny island across the sea" shouldn't rule the continent of america is similar to "the elephant and rider" theory. In this theory, the rider of the elephant actually sees himself in charge of everything and even in charge of the elephant, but when there is a sort of disagreement between the elephant and the rider, the elephant will emerge winner. This is similar to "the tiny island across the sea" that feels it can control and rule over America. But when there is war between them, America wins.
