the country had. A country could gain wealth in two ways
Mine gold or silver at home or in colonies Sell more goods than it bought from other countries
A colony’s country would provide a strong market for manufactured goods, therefore colonies were forbade from buying manufactured goods from other countries
MERCANTILISM: GOOD OR BAD? Work with your shoulder partners to
answer the following questions: Why were the English and French so
insistent upon limiting products made in the colonies?
What might have been the result had mercantilism been successful and the English had acquired all the gold?
