7 oct 1651 año - Navigation Act 1651

Descripción:

A law that granted the Commonwealth the power to regulate England's trade internationally and with its colonies. It also banned non-English ships from transporting goods from Asia, Africa, or the Americas to England or its colonies. Ships that counted as English were those with an English master, owner, the majority of its crew. The law purposefully targeted the Dutch, who dominated Europe's international trade. The law was later repealed in 1660 when the English monarchy was restored and replaced with new Navigation Acts.
