History

creativ13 [48]3 years ago
5 0

The British had an empire to run. The way that they kept their economy healthy was through a system called mercantilism. Mercantilism was a popular economic philosophy in the 17th and 18th centuries. In this system, the British colonies were moneymakers for the mother country. The British put restrictions on how their colonies spent their money so that they could control their economies. They put limits on what goods the colonies could produce, whose ships they could use, and most importantly, with whom they could trade. The British even put taxes called duties on imported goods to discourage this practice. This pushed the colonists to buy only British goods, instead of goods from other European countries

During the years after reconstruction there were many groups of people whose civil and political rights were not upheld. Discuss
oksian1 [2.3K]
One group can be African Americans. Racist states found ways to prevent them from voting by imposing things like laws that force you to take a literacy test or similar. They also forbade them from working like regular workers by introducing the cropsharing system.

Another can be women. Women had been fighting for their political rights since before the war began. After it ended, they were still not given voting rights which lasted up until 1920s. Many women objected how African-Americans could be given voting rights and women

Third group can be Native Americans. After the war ended, the country could then start spreading westwards which had to be halted due to the war. More states began being added and this meant that Natives would have to move to reservations and their rights and land were being taken from them.
