 | Did you hear, officials from England are establishing Mercantilism in the colonies! | |
|
| What Mercantilism? | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Mercantilism is when the officials make profits for their country by establishing balance of trade. | |
|
| Oh, so how do they make profits? | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| They make their profits by getting less imports, which are things brought in from other countries, and more exports, which are things brought to other countries. | |
|
| Well I guess that means we won't get much profit anymore unless they still bring supplies to us. | |
