Adam Smith criticized what he called the "mercantile system" because it restricted trade and thus restricted economic growth.  The mercantile system believed the wealth of the world was a fixed amount, measured primarily in gold and silver accumulated.  The system promoted a nation selling its products abroad but not needing to buy from others, or imposing heavy tariffs if importing anything.  Commerce was heavily controlled by the government through charters granted to specific trading companies.

Smith countered by advocating a free market -- the opportunity for all nations to increase their wealth by exchanging goods freely with one another according to what would become known as capitalist principles.

The rise of (individualism) or (nationalism) encouraged people to study their nation's history (PLZZ HELP)
denpristay [2]

Answer: Historiography for the Purpose of Nationalism.

Explanation:

The emergence of nationalism in a world dating back to the late eighteenth century. Get your full swing in the next two. Nationalism is reflected through all pores of political, social and scientific life. The emergence of nationalism also reflected on historiography.

Many historians have been encouraged by nationalism. Many of these works have emerged as a result of these tendencies. It is often a syndrome of lesser value because myths characterize most of these historical works. Their scientific value is also called into question. The historian must be objective when writing. The question is, where does this phenomenon come from? Nationalism in historiography seeks to portray, one national entity as larger than another. That is, to minorize another. A patriot historian can be objective, unlike a nationalist.

Does the history of the American Revolution prove that owning small firearms is a way for citizens to defend themselves against
Yakvenalex [24]

The history of the American Revolution does not prove that owning small firearms is a means for citizens to defend themselves.

<h3 /><h3>Does the American Revolution support the Second Amendment?</h3>

Proponents of the Second Amendment had the notion that if civilians had small firearms, they would be able to defend themselves against tyrannical governments.

Yet this was not the case in the American Revolution because the people could not rely on small firearms to defend themselves against the British.

They had to rely on heavy artillery and arms which was what the British had as well.
