The law that required colonies to trade only on English ships is known as the Navigation Acts. These laws were implemented by the British government in the 17th century to regulate colonial trade and ensure that it benefited England's economy. The Navigation Acts aimed to restrict competition from other countries and increase profits for English merchants.
Parliament passed the Navigation Acts to keep all the profits from the colonies for England. They banned trade in colonial ports with any foreign country other than England. Thus, goods couldn't go straight to Europe, bypass Britain and keep British merchants from making money.
The Navigation Acts were written by English Parliament. The acts were passed on October 9th, 1651. The Navigation Acts were eventually repealed in 1849.
