 <span>Mercantilism was an economic theory that posited that the richer a nation was,the more powerful it would be.It was the dominant economic system in the West throughout the 18th century. 

Colonies could be exploited for cheap raw materials - furs,lumber,fish and so on - that could be used to feed the home populations of the colonizing countries,and for use in producing manufactured goods in these countries.America had all these things in abundance,which encouraged European colonization there.</span>

How can the tudor period be considered a turning point in british history
il63 [147K]
A lot of famous and infamous monarchs have come from the Tudors.
The Tudor dynasty was a turning point from the beginning because its first monarch, Henry VII, became the monarch at the end of a series of battles now known as the War of the Roses.

Later on, the well-known monarchs Mary I ("Blood y Mary") and Elizabeth I, both members of the Tudor dynasty, came to throne, performing many history-changing actions.

How does the u.s. constitution's structure reflect the values of the founding fathers?
ratelena [41]
I believe that although the constitution has not changed much since it was written, but I do believe that however, the interpretation of the constitution has changed over time. I believe that the Founding Fathers would be a little shocked if they were to travel through time and see how the US is right now.
