Answer:

Having to pay high duties on foreign sugar and molasses.

Explanation:

During the colonial era, especially from the mid-1700s, Britain began to carry out increasingly protectionist policies regarding its production, framed in the mercantilist concept of economic production. Mercantilism, in short, established that the wealth of a country is mediated in terms of its production of resources and its territorial extension, which allowed nations to accumulate wealth.

In this context, the British government began to prohibit its colonies from trading with other European nations (as this would benefit their economies), establishing commercial monopolies in the colonies, which implied a huge loss of rights on the part of the colonists, harming their economic and political freedoms.

What are locations important to politics in the late 1800s to early 1900s?
mina [271]
Between 1880 and 1900, cities in the United States grew at a dramatic rate. Owing most of their population growth to the expansion of industry, U.S. cities grew by about 15 million people in the two decades before 1900. Many of those who helped account for the population growth of cities were immigrants arriving from around the world. A steady stream of people from rural America also migrated to the cities during this period. Between 1880 and 1890, almost 40 percent of the townships in the United States lost population because of migration.
