What happened After the Navigation Acts went into effect

History

Yuki888 [10]3 years ago

The Dutch were masters of the sea. They dominated trade, especially in England's colonies. Dutch ships, called fluits or flyboats, could ship colonial exports more cheaply, offer a greater variety of imports, and generally provide a level of reliability England could not match. This meant that the Dutch controlled the lion's share of the market and therefore the lion's share of the profits.

This made the English government angry. Parliament and Cromwell wanted to seize the benefits of their colonies' trade. That's why they had colonies after all - to make money off them! The Navigation Acts, they hoped, would eliminate or at least minimize Dutch competition. Dutch ships could no longer pick up colonial exports or bring most imports into England and her colonies.

In passing the Navigation Acts, the English government was also trying to work out a practical application of one of its favorite economic theories, namely, mercantilism. Mercantilism, which first became popular in the 16th century, operated on the following principles:

What were two main compromises of the constitutional convention and how did it effect the government?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

  • The Great Compromise (also known as the Connecticut Compromise)
  • The Three-Fifths Compromise

The two compromises affected the way a state's representation in Congress would be determined.

Explanation:

Both of these compromises were devised during the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787.  

The Great Compromise resolved a dispute between small population states and large population states.  The large population states wanted representation in Congress to be based on a state's population size.  The smaller states feared this would lead to unchecked dominance by the big states; they wanted all states to receive the same amount of representation.  The Great Compromise created a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature.  Representation in the House of Representatives would be based on population.  In the Senate, all states would have the same amount of representation, by two Senators.

The Three-Fifths Compromise was a way of accounting (somewhat) for the population of slaves in states that permitted slavery.  For taxation and representation purposes, the question was whether slaves should count in the population figures.  (They were not considered voting citizens at that time.)   The Three-Fifths Compromise said that three out of every five slaves could be counted when determining a state's population size for determining how many seats that state would receive in the House of Representatives.
