In its purest sense, mercantilism is a bankrupt theory that has no place in the modern world. The principle tenant of mercantilism is that a country should maintain a trade surplus, even if that means that imports are limited by government intervention. This policy is bankrupt for at least two reasons. First, it is inconsistent with the general notion of globalization, which is becoming more and more prevalent in the world. A policy of mercantilism will anger potential trade partners because it will exclude their goods from free access to the mercantilist country's markets. Eventually, a country will find it difficult to export if it imposes oppressive quotas and tariffs on its imports. Second, mercantilism is bankrupt because it hurts the consumers in the mercantilist country. By denying its consumers access to either "cheaper" goods from other countries or more "sophisticated" goods from other countries, the mercantilist country's ordinary consumers suffer.

No, all of the countries that were once in the British Empire were all freed at the end of World War 2 as Britain was nearly bankrupt! Also, I don't think France was ever in the British Empire.
