Britain and Its Colonies

What to Remember Today 1. Mercantilism 2. Salutary Neglect

Mercantilism Definition: A country’s goal of becoming wealthier by having the most gold and silver You need to export MORE than you import How Britain Used its Colonies: Market - to buy English goods Producer of goods – make goods that England can sell to others like tobacco Trade was a two way street Beneficial to colonies and to England

Navigation Acts Laws passed by Parliament (the people who make laws in England) Laws restricted who colonies could trade with No country could trade with the colonies unless goods shipped on English ships Ships had to be run by English people

Glorious Revolution In Europe, Christians are fighting  Protestants versus Catholics King James of Britain is Catholic He’s overthrown by new king and queen: William and Mary Under William and Mary, Parliament (Britain’s Congress) becomes more powerful so it passes laws that hurt the king More freedom for the press, religious tolerance

Salutary Neglect England’s rival was France – they competed for control of Europe England’s 1st priority was to compete with France The colonies were 2nd priority England required colonies to export raw materials and import English goods As long as they did this, Parliament didn’t pay a lot of attention to colonies  salutary neglect

Self Government Government of Colonies: King governor council local congress Governor very powerful – ran entire colony without being controlled by king So, salutary neglect lead to the beginnings of independence from England
