Best Answer

According to mercantilism, the metropole would require the colonies to engage in two general behaviors: (1) The colonies were locked into exclusive trade between themselves and metropole and were not allowed to trade with any other nation or colony. (2) No manufactures or complex goods could be made in the colonial territory. As a result the colonies would provide wealth to the metropole by trading their Natural Resources for less than they would be worth and by buying manufactures for much more money.
