Gulliver was searched before presenting in the royal court to ensure he was not carrying any weapons or posing a threat to the king or other royalty. This was a precautionary measure to protect the safety of the royal family and court.
In the royal court, Gulliver's main enemy is Flimnap, the treasurer of Lilliput who is jealous of Gulliver's favor with the emperor and works to undermine him.
Gulliver leaves Lilliput after a falling out with the Emperor and court over his refusal to help Lilliput in a war against Blefuscu. Gulliver is accused of treason and makes his escape to Blefuscu before eventually returning to England.
The farmer was glad to sell Gulliver to the queen because it provided him with a significant financial gain, far exceeding what he could earn through his regular farming activities. Additionally, he likely saw it as an opportunity to gain prestige and recognition by presenting such a unique and extraordinary creature to the royal court. Selling Gulliver also relieved him of the burden of caring for someone who required special attention and resources.

Grildrig is the name given to Gulliver by the inhabitants of the island of Brobdingnag in the novel "Gulliver's Travels" by Jonathan Swift. Grildrig is a diminutive size compared to the Brobdingnagians, who are giants. Gulliver faces many challenges and adventures while living among the Brobdingnagians as Grildrig.
The Indictment of King George III is the part of the Declaration is most like a lawyer presenting charges against a criminal in court.
The Lilliputians gained favor in court by flattering the emperor and manipulating Gulliver to help them in their political struggles. They also used his size to their advantage, making him a spectacle and showing off their power and control over him to secure their positions in government and influence at court.
