• they are republic
• they have their own monarchy

Explanation:

In "Common Sense", Paine uses Holland (the Dutch Republic) and Switzerland as examples of republics that avoid wars (foreign or domestic) to argue for the merits of republican government. The other options are incorrect: Switzerland wasn't a monarchy, being part of Europe isn't the reason for no wars, and they didn't reconcile with the British in the context of this argument.

Answer:

A. they are republic
