The Navigation Acts (9 out 1651 ano – 27 jul 1663 ano)

Descrição:

The Navigation Acts were a series of act that took place during 1650, 1660 and 1663, it was used to enforce mercantilism. Parliament attempted to use the Navigation Acts as a way to combat the Dutch, a growing trade industry, to ensure that Great Britain would receive maximum profits. This eventually led up to the war of independence, because as Britain kept on enforcing more acts that raised revenue and would burden the colonist, the resentment against the mother country continued to grow.
