What happened After the Navigation Acts went into effect

History
1 answer:
Yuki888 [10]2 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:

Summarize Lincoln's 3 three reasons for the Ten Percent Plan.
Nataly [62]
Ten-Percent Plan,which specified that a southern state could be readmitted into the Union once 10 percent of its voters (from the voter rolls for the election of 1860) swore an Oath Of Allegiance to the Union. Voters could then elect delegates to draft revised state constitutions and establish new state governments. All southerners except for high-ranking Confederate army officers and government officials would be granted a full pardon. Lincoln guaranteed southerners that he would protect their private property, though not their slaves. Most moderate Republicans in Congress supported the president’s proposal for Reconstruction because they wanted to bring a quick end to the war.

In many ways, the Ten-Percent Plan was more of a political maneuver than a plan for Reconstruction. Lincoln wanted to end the war quickly. He feared that a protracted war would lose public support and that the North and South would never be reunited if the fighting did not stop quickly. His fears were justified: by late 1863, a large number of Democrats were clamoring for a truce and peaceful resolution. Lincoln’s Ten-Percent Plan was thus lenient—an attempt to entice the South to surrender.

During the reparations period, Germany received between 27 and 38 million marks in which the United States, Great Britain, the Netherlands and Switzerland served. In addition,  a loan of 800 million marks was to be raised (where more than 50 percent was from the United States, 25 percent in Britain and the balance of other European nations) to support the German currency and help in the payment of The repairs.
