Why did merchants in the American colonies began smuggling goods

History
1 answer:
AlladinOne [14]3 years ago

The merchants in the American colonies began smuggling goods because the Navigation Act passed by Britain put an embargo, or pause on imports and severely restricted trade. The British goods were highly taxed, and the colonists were frustrated because Britain didn't give them representation in Parliament even though they were being taxed. Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

During the Middle Ages, there was an economic and political system in Europe called FEUDALISM, that used a hierarchical system of land  ownership. At the top were THE LORDS who were members of the highest social class. They controlled small districts of land that they leased  to tenant farmers called  VASSALS. These tenant farmers were stuck in their lower social class. The entire system eventually faded as  INDUSTRIALIZATION caused a middle class to grow.

Explanation:

Feudalism is a hierarchical social system built around grants, estates and privileges, sometimes hereditary, which the monarchy gave to a ruling class as a reward for services. Feudal rights were held only by vassals and nobility in feudal society. This means that they had a monopoly on mills, wine presses, ovens, hunting and fishing as well as the highest offices in society. The concept of feudalism also includes the feudalist society where vassals, kings and peasants lived.

Feudal society has sometimes been portrayed as a pyramid, where the king had the greatest power. Under him were great vassals who obeyed and were given land by the king. Sub-vassals who obeyed the great vassals could, for example, be knights and soldiers. Further down there were self-employed farmers. Under them were the homeless, such as crofters, farmhands and maids, day laborers, backstug sitters, and maids, many of whom lived in conditions reminiscent of servitude. In medieval Europe, agriculture was the dominant industry.
