Mercantilism requires that the colonies exclusively trade with the metropole in order to provide it the economic advantage of being the sole source of finished goods for the colonies.

Navigation acts were a series of laws passed by the British Parliament in the 17th and 18th centuries to regulate colonial trade and shipping. They required goods to be transported on British ships and sold through British ports, limiting the ability of colonies to trade with other countries. Violations of these acts often resulted in heavy fines or loss of trading privileges.
