Yanka [14]

Answer: A Many shipbuilders gained wealth as a result of supplying the military.

Explanation:

The French and Indian war was a conflict in North America which saw the British, the British colonies and their Indian allies go against the French and their Indian allies between the years 1754 to 1763. It happened around the same time as the Seven Years war between European powers.

After William Pitt took over the war effort in North America and convinced Parliament to fund him unwaveringly, he was able to increase the Royal Navy's presence in North America partly due to contracts awarded to shipbuilders in the colonies to build ships. These increased the wealth of the shipbuilders and gave the Royal Navy superiority in the war which was used with devastating effect on the French.

Many Europeans would use goods taken from the New World
erastovalidia [21]

The correct answer is "To sell to their other colonies."

Many Europeans would use goods taken from the New World to sell to their other colonies.

That is how European monarchies and governments got rich at the expense of their colonies.

First, settlers and colonists exploited the many natural resources and raw materials found in the colonies to make a profit. Then, they exported the rax materials to Europe. There, industries and fabrics transformed the raw materials into goods that were exported back to the colonies. That is how Europe made a lot of money, of course, using the slave trade to send African slaves to the colonies to work for long hours in the farm fields growing crops.
