Question 16

Answer 1

Answer: D . Raw materials were shipped from Georgia, manufactured goods were shipped from Britain, and Britain controlled which raw materials wore produced

Step-by-step explanation:

In the colonial era of the United States, the British who were in charge then engaged in an Economic policy called Mercantilism. This was a system where they limited imports into Britain but encouraged exports from Britain so that they would maintain a favorable balance of trade.

A key part of this system was having colonies that goods could be exported to and that raw materials could be acquired from at a cheap rate.

Southern colonies like Georgia fulfilled this mandate more than the rest as they would ship raw materials to Britain and buy manufactured goods from them with Britain controlling which raw materials Georgians produced.
