As Europeans expanded their market reach into the colonial sphere, they devised a new economic policy to ensure the colonies’ profitability. The philosophy of mercantilism shaped European perceptions of wealth from the 1500s to the late 1700s. Mercantilism held that only a limited amount of wealth, as measured in gold and silver bullion, existed in the world. In order to gain power, nations had to amass wealth by mining these precious raw materials from their colonial possessions. Mercantilists did not believe in free trade, arguing instead that the nation should control trade to create wealth and to enhance state power. In this view, colonies existed to strengthen the colonizing nation.
Colonial mercantilism, a set of protectionist policies designed to benefit the colonizing nation, relied on several factors:
Colonies rich in raw materials
Cheap labor
Colonial loyalty to the home government
Control of the shipping trade

What factors caused Rome to plunge into civil wars and how did they weaken the republic?
Olegator [25]

<em>The factors that caused Rome to plunge into civil wars and weakened the Republic were: </em>

<u>Power and control</u>. Powerful Roman families desired to gain control at any cost. Assassinations were the order of the day. There were some Roman Emperors that lasted very few ruling the Empire. It debilitated the social structure of Rome.

<u>Ambition</u>. The Roman Empire was so ambitious. Its hunger for more territories made them always be involved in conquering wars. The Empire expansion reached so far Rome that in those far away places the Empire could not sustain its armies and their presence.

<u>Egotism</u>. Roman soldiers were more loyal to their commanders than the same Empire. This means that loyalty was to the person, the leader, more than Rome. Battles among troops started and this debilitated the Roma army.

<u>Killing</u>. Those differences and political control generated wars among the Romans and many people were killed.

<u>Patricians land</u>. There was a Land legislation to take land from the Patricians to give it to the Military men after sixteen years of service in the Roman Army. This was one of the reasons for the civil war.
