 <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>

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer: a. State governments

Explanation:

In the US, there are 3 types of government: federal, state and local. Local government comprises counties and municipalities or cities/towns. Local government deals with the police, providing public local services (such as public transportation) and caring for citizens in calamitous situations. Local government is the form of authority which is closest to the citizen.

Since local governments are granted power by state governments, they often model their structure from state governments.
