The only nation still capable of fighting the Germans on the western front was Great Britain.
In the mid–seventeenth century Dutch settlers in present-day New York tried to produce blue dye from wild indigo plants, with moderate success. In the 1720s the French government supplied French settlers in Louisiana with indigo plant seeds. The indigo crop was successfully cultivated there, and factories were built for the manufacture of dye. Then, in 1744 Eliza Lucas successfully cultivated, processed, and exported indigo from her father's plantation outside Charleston, South Carolina. Her shipment of six pounds of "Carolina Indigo" to England caused quite a sensation in London. To encourage other colonial planters to grow and produce indigo, the British government immediately offered a "bounty," or bonus of six pence per pound on their indigo exports. As a result, exports soared from 6 pounds in 1744 to 5,000 pounds the following year. By 1755 the Carolina colony alone was exporting around 200,000 pounds of indigo annually; Georgia was just beginning to export indigo, with 4,500 pounds exported that year. Georgia's indigo exportation reached its peak in 1770, with more than 22,000 pounds.
When Smith was writing, those rulers dominated the planet. Most still ruled by divine right. Their realms were their property, to do with as they saw fit. Smith did engage in microeconomics, analyzing the new way of production that was emerging in Britain at that time. Yet, as the title of his book suggests, his primary concern was macroeconomics. He wanted to explain what made a nation wealthy and how a nation’s wealth could be enhanced. His explanations and recommendations put him at odds with mercantilism, the dominant economic doctrine of the time. It called for rulers to treat the finances of their realms as anyone would treat the finances of their own household: to exert as much control as possible, to take in as much income as possible, and to spend that money judiciously. These rulers were happy to abide by the first two parts of that doctrine. They were not lax in exercising their power domestically, including controlling economic activity. They were both diligent and imaginative when it came to increasing their incomes, especially the part that came from taxes. Their spending, however, was another story. They spent money lavishly on themselves, on wars to expand or defend their realms and on exploratory expeditions with the aim of expanding their territory.
