Mercantilism, which prioritized state control over economic resources and trade to enhance national power, often had detrimental effects on Europe's colonies. While it aimed to enrich the colonial powers through strict trade regulations and resource extraction, it frequently stifled local economies and limited the colonies' economic development. Colonists were typically forced to trade only with the mother country, leading to dependency and exploitation. Overall, while it benefited European nations, it was largely detrimental to the colonies themselves.

Events in England and Europe had significant impacts on England's southern colonies in the New World, primarily through shifts in trade, politics, and immigration. For instance, conflicts like the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution influenced colonial governance and created instability that led to changes in colonial leadership. Additionally, economic events such as the Navigation Acts affected trade routes and the colonies' economic reliance on cash crops like tobacco. These events, alongside European competition for colonial territories, shaped the social and economic landscape of the southern colonies.
