Navigation acts
The American colonies were required to supply England with raw materials primarily due to the Navigation Acts, which mandated that certain goods, such as tobacco, sugar, and timber, be shipped exclusively to England. This mercantilist policy aimed to ensure that England benefited economically from colonial resources, fostering a trade relationship that favored the mother country. By supplying raw materials, the colonies played a crucial role in supporting England's growing industries and maintaining its economic dominance.
England controlled trade and the North American colonies provided England with raw materials.
The Navigation Acts required the colonies to trade only with England.

The main purpose of England's mercantilist policy was to maximize profits through monopoly within colonies. American colonies were exploited by England for their raw materials, which were shipped to England for processing and sold back to other colonies at a significant mark up.
