Explanation:

Thomas Paine in "Common Sense" focused on 'the law' as the 'king'. He wanted to evoke the people of the responsibilities of the government. He focused on the importance of the law and urged the people to have a government that is abided by the law. He made the American people understand that the independence from Britain is possible when the citizens of America would make the law their king. He strictly prohibited the rule of monarchy and encouraged "the rule of law".
