The Navigation Acts enforced mercantilist policies. These brought Britain forth as the world's most dominate trader. They used policies to expand their own merchants ability to dominate the markets.

Who were the physiocrats?

"Physiocrat" was a term used in France during the French Revolution to describe the economic reformers who encouraged the government to simplify the tax system and remove the mercantilist constraints from the economy. An example of a mercantilist constraint is control on the price of grain which had been imposed to keep the cost of bread low. The physiocrats claimed that this interfered with the natural workings of the market. From that example, you get the idea that a physiocrat is an economic reformer who aims for a freer economy, like the French revolutionary aiming for more liberty and justice.


What dose aftermarket navigation system mean?

An aftermarket navigation system simply refers to a navigation system that was not originally a part of the original car or place of installation. For example, if you do not like the CD player that came with your car and you decide to get a new one and have it installed. You have just purchased an "aftermarket" CD player. The same applies for a navigation device.

How can mercantilism help to create wealth with the European nations?

Mercantilism is a very protectionist form of economic policy. This means that a government using a mercantilist policy will aim at a positive trade balance: selling more to other countries then they sell to you. Resulting in making more money on your own sales than paying for other countries' products. A mercantilist govenment will often use (covert) export subsidies to make its country's products more attractive, keeping the cost of products down by low wages and keeping the value of its currency low. An example: China is today often accused of mercantilist policies to boost its trade balance.
