I think Thomas Paine's articles Common Sense and Age of Reason inspired the US Government because they all talk about getting rid of British. His articles said had inspiring quotes about patriotism and how it unjust. Also he wanted the United States to have their own Democratic Republic with fair laws. Another reason was because he wanted the British to stop taxing them unfairly. My last reason because all his quotes were inspiring and motivated the patriots to stand up and fight for what they believe in.

Thomas Paine was the writer of Common Sense, it was popular for Agreeing that the American colonies should be ridiculed of England power and be it's own free country. Rights of Man, that was popular because it was talking about the French Revolution and it was also a response to criticism. Also Age of Reason, it was like Common Sense because it talking about how America should be free of Great Britain in the colonies.
