I believe it was because of fear. At the time, many Asian (Chinese especially) people moved to America in search of a better life. Then, the Gold Rush was a thing because there was a lot of it so any worker was welcome. However, as the gold began to be depleted, foreign laborers were wanted less and less. Eventually, the fear of competition grew so strong that President Chester A. Arthur ratified the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882, thereby denying them access into America.

Under mercantilism, merchants can only buy from the mother country and their trade becomes limited [as they cannot sell nor buy from other countries but only their mother country].

Countries with the highest gross domestic product (gdp) _____ have the highest gdp per capita. * may not* always* never
Iteru [2.4K]

The answer is never because GDP per capita depends on GDP and population. Countries with more people have the potential to make more goods and services. But, having more people also lowers GDP per capita, because more people have to share these products.

The people that have largely shaped African history since the 16th century are the C. European people.

<h3>How has Europe shaped African history?</h3>

The Europeans have perhaps shaped the history of Africa more than any other people. This is outstanding considering that the Europeans only started interacting with most of Africa from the 16th century. The first way they shaped the history of Africa was through slavery.

European people carried millions of Africans from their homeland, and dispersed them across the world, especially in the Americas. This reduced the population of the continent.

Europeans then came and colonized most of Africa. Indeed at some point, more than 90% of Africa was under the control of the Europeans. They used this pwoer to exploit the continent for its resources. Even after Africa gained independence, these European countries still continued to influence the government of African nations, and exploit her resources further.
