Answer:

B. the Whigs and the Tories

Explanation:

In Gulliver's Travels, Gulliver encounters two political parties when he arrives to Lilliput: the high heels and the low heels. The high heels are those who support Lilliput's constitution and the Emperor. The low heels, on the other hand, are the party in power. Swift wants the reader to connect the Tories with the high heels (he himself was a Tory) and the low heels with the Whigs. During Swift's time, King George I was sympathetic to Whigs in the same way that the Emperor of Lilliput was sympathetic to the low heels.
