Imperialism describes a type of power relation when one politically entity is subordinate to another. Imperialism can take many forms since there are different ways to make countries subservient to other countries (e.g.) military forces; money). Mercantilism is an economic system in which the purpose of economic development and trade is only to benefit the home country. Mercantilists believed trade to be a zero-sum game (i.e.) if someone is getting trade, someone must be losing it) and that the most important resource to hold was gold (and they encouraged getting as much of it as possible). Mercantilism and imperialism overlapped each other during the first wave of European imperialism in the Americas. European powers developed colonies to extract resources and create markets to export goods to.
The most important principle of mercantilism was to export more than you import when running a nation.
Mercantilism is important to the growth of the economy. It helps to trade and supply goods and makes services easier. Mercantilism became dominant in Europe in the year 16th to 18th century.

The Colonies were important because they supply Great Britain raw resources and material.

Its as important as any other nation's history on the subject of imperialism. In fact Britain's imperialism record might be greater than Japans as England colonized far more territory than Japan ever did.

Imperialism is when a nation colonizes another nation or territory. The Europeans believed that imperialism was important because they said that it was their responsibility to civilize those who they believed were inferior to them and because they wanted the other nations' resources.
