At the start of the American Civil War, it was the North that had "dominance" (or, a strong advantage) in foreign trade. While the South's cotton was a primary export crop for the United States before the war, it was Northern merchants who handled the vast majority of the shipping between markets, just as the ships themselves were typically constructed by Northern ship-builders.
Yes they did but not in the American one, in the British one. The only involvement in the American one was trade, running arms and "luxury" goods through the blockades for the South. However attempts to involve it in the war though the cotton trade failed as there were alternative supplies through the British Empire and it was trading corn with the North. The CSS Alabama was built secretly by a British shipyard for the South capturing 60+ "prizes" during it's history.
isolation
Thy thought that selling cotton and other produce abroad would allow them to buy the munitions they needed, and that foreign governments would come to their aid, as the French had done for the US in the American Revolution. Instead, the blockade prevented trade, and the Emancipation Proclamation prevented foreign intervention because no foreign nation want to be seen as pro-slavery.

Chinese against foreign trade
The Manchu rulers of the Qing Dynasty imposed strict regulations on foreign trade to maintain control over economic interactions and limit foreign influence. They designated specific ports, such as Canton (Guangzhou), for foreign trade and restricted foreign merchants to certain areas. Additionally, foreign traders were required to operate through licensed Chinese merchants known as "co-hong," and they faced various tariffs and restrictions on the types of goods they could trade. These measures aimed to regulate commerce and protect domestic industries while minimizing foreign impact on Chinese society.

These factors can complicate economic policy and impact domestic growth and stability.
