Southern Europe is also known as Mediterranean Europe.
Let's take a look at some command economies: today: North Korea
In the past: The Soviet Union.
We can see that in both cases the countries failed to provide enough food and supplies for their citizens, so one way that command economies influence the citizens of the countries that had them was by inducing hunger. (the same is not true of mixed economies, or not always true).
The tea act was created because the East India Company's tea wasn't being bought and was losing money. The East India Company made England money so England took the tax on tea off from theirs while other merchants who sold tea still had to pay tax. This allowed the East India Company to sell their tea for less and got more people to but their tea. This angered Patriots because they still had no say in government and everyone else still had to pay the tax for tea which made less people buy the regular tea because it would cost more.
While Congress had the right to regulate all forms of American currency, the Articles failed to call for a singular form of currency. This meant that the national government could print money, but each state could as well. Consequently, America had no uniform system of currency which made trade between the states, and with foreign entities, much more difficult and less efficient.
