The United States has greatly increased its import and export levels.
The economy of the English colonies benefited the economy of England through the export of raw materials, such as tobacco, cotton, and timber, which were not readily available in England. These resources fueled English industries and contributed to economic growth. Additionally, the colonies provided a market for English manufactured goods, creating a cycle of trade that strengthened both economies. This symbiotic relationship helped England expand its wealth and influence globally.
