Answer:
Its answer option 1. Just took the test.
Explanation:
Both Jefferson and Hamilton, thought that Customs duties, would be good for the new Republic, because they would give enough profits to finance the Federal government, and it was easy to establish this law because there were rivers and costs that crossed several states, so these states could not collect their own taxes for sharing water. So only the Federal government could charge for the traffic of goods and ships through the waters of the new Republic. Since tariff revenues were strongly related to foreign trade, it was a crucial part of Hamilton's economic strategy.
The British government relaxed rules regulating trade for the American colonies in the late 1600s because the British hoped the colonies would become wealthier and spend more on manufactured goods from Britain.
Okay, so, just from the top of my head, I think that it is because of the growing belief of "Manifest Destiny" in the nineteenth century. I'm not sure if this is the actual right answer for your question, but I do know that Manifest Destiny was in the nineteenth century and was the widely held belief in the USA that American settlers were destined to expand through out the continent. And I think both the USA and Europe wanted to expand, it was kind of a copetition/conflict they had. This was actually how Canada and Alaska came to be I believe. This was a simple explanation btw. cx
