The correct answer is manufacture products.

The system of mercantilism was used by Great Britain while they were in control of the North American colonies. This system relied on Great Britain having a favorable balance of trade, gaining natural resources from the colonies, and develop products that could benefit the British economy. Many of the resources supplied by the North American colonies would be sent to Great Britain to be turned into manufactured goods and then sent back to the colonies for sale.

Essentially, the colonies existed to benefit the "mother country" (aka Great Britain's) economy.

A census is what this is called. A census (depending on the type and by who is conducting it) basically counts something like the number of people in the population so that whoever is using it can get accurate results for something. Like lets say a king wanted a census of his people, animals, soldiers. He would instantly have his men count all the people in the city. They would record the amount of animals. And the same for soldiers. Then they would put all this information in a big book and keep it in the palace. It was frequently updated as people moved or died.

Well, during this period of time, manufacturing jobs started increasing because of the war! Men started leaving their lives in the United States and started storming out to war, and this led to women taking over these jobs. This is why we see the “Rosie the Riveter” posters during this period of time. Just remember, we don’t declare war up until December 8th 1941, when Pearl Harbor was attacked and President Roosevelt signed the Declaration of War.
