Mercantilism was the primary economic system of trade used from the 16th to 18th century. Mercantilist theorists believed that the amount of wealth in the world was static. Thus, European nations took several strides to ensure their nations accumulated as much of this wealth as possible. The goal was to increase a nation's wealth by imposing government regulation that oversaw all of the nation's commercial interests. It was believed national strength could be maximized by limiting imports via tariffs and maximizing exports.

2. How would you characterize President Obama's foreign policy? How does it compare to the foreign policy of the George W. Bush
frez [133]

Answer:

Obama's foreign policy was a bit more conciliatory toward certain countries than that of his predecessor, however, Obama also intervened militarily in other countries like his predecessor did in the past.

For example, Obama sought peace agreements with Iran and Afghanistan, while Bush was much more aggressive against these countries.

But Obama also intervened with the American military in Libya and Syria, two countries that were civil wars that have not ended yet.

Another thing to highlight is that Obama tried to normalize relations with Cuba, while Bush was much more aggresive against the Island.
