Answer:

The mother country controlled trade and exported more than imported

Explanation:

The British Empire came up with a strategy to keep their economy quite healthy with a system called mercantilism. The colonies of the British were the ones making money for the mother country and they put restrictions on how the colonies should spend their monies.  

The British put certain taxes on goods that were brought into the country to discourage that practice and this made the colonies to buy goods that were only made by the British and not that of the European countries.

What factors led the American people to think of this flag as an important historical artifact?
nikitadnepr [17]

The stripes represent the original 13 Colonies and the stars represent the 50 states of the Union. The colors of the flag are symbolic as well; red symbolizes hardiness and valor, white symbolizes purity and innocence, and blue represents vigilance, perseverance and justice. Our flag is an inspiring symbol that unites us all as American citizens. The unique history of the American flag follows the history of our country and reminds us of the triumphant beginning of the United States. The 13 stripes: a symbol of the first 13 colonies. The stars: a symbol of our country's 50 United States. As our country grew and developed, so did our flag. It has followed the fate of the country itself and, in the future, our flag may even change again.

Why would someone argue that the Electoral College system should remain the same
elixir [45]
The Electoral College should remain the same for various reasons. First, if it were not for the Electoral College, large states, such as California, would largely control the nation. The Electoral College is designed to maximize states' rights. For example, if the U.S. were a direct democracy, Hillary Clinton would have been elected as our president, even though approximately 90% states supported Trump. With the Electoral College, each state has 2-3 Electors for each Political Party. If the majority of the state votes for Hillary, the democratic electors for that specific state get the vote. If the majority of the state votes for Trump, the Republican electors get the vote. The system is designed to maximize sates' rights and avoid impulsive, mass decisions.
