The mother country does not rule in order to habe the region become part of the mother country. The mother country just wants to control the colony for the main purposes of exploiting of the colony's Natural Resources, creation of new markets, and extension of the colonizer's way of life.

Are England and France the mother countries?

A "Mother Country" is the country a person was born in when he or she has emigrated to some other country. A "Mother Country" can also be the country that owns a colony and is thus the mother country of that colony. So, England is the mother country for people born in England who live in Australia, Russia, the US, or elsewhere, and similarly for France. In terms of colonies, England was the mother country of the colonies of the British Empire, and is sometimes called "mother country" by some in the Commonwealth of Nations. Similarly France was the mother country of the colonies in the French Empire, and may still be called that by some people in those, now independent, countries But for someone who was born, for example in Germany, or for someone in a former colony of the Netherlands, neither England nor France are "mother countries."

The colony would be prohibited from trading their raw materials to other countries and would be forced to buy finished products from only the mother country though the mother country could sell their products freely
