England Controls Colonial Trade

England Controls Colonial Trade is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 2: Daily Life in the Colonies in California myWorld Interactive, Grade 5.

Key Concepts

England believed a country's power came from its wealth. It used an economic idea called mercantilism to control colonial trade. The colonies had to ship raw materials, like lumber and tobacco, only to England. In return, colonists had to buy more expensive manufactured goods, like tools and cloth, from England.

This system created complex shipping routes across the Atlantic Ocean. These routes connected Europe, Africa, and the Americas in a pattern called the triangular trade . A central and brutal part of this trade was the forced journey of enslaved Africans to the Americas.
