|
 | So this growth of trade in the 1600's we're studying is pretty cool. | |
|
| Yeah. Like, apparently England, the West Indies and the American colonists had a balance of trade together. | |
|

|
|
|
| There was a triangular trade between them all. | |
|
| The colonists exported furs, tobacco, and lumber to England and the West Indies in order to get imports of hardware, machinery and household items from England. | |
|

|
|
|
|
| True, but tobacco is a drug. Drugs are bad. Don't do drugs. | |
|
| Of course I won't! When I get out of college it will be my duty to tell kids that because I will be a teacher. | |
