How did the Navigation acts in 1650s affect American colonies?
The Navigation Acts were imposed on the American colonies by England in order to restrict trade with every country except England. It affected them negatively because they were no longer allowed to trade with anyone except their home country, and therefore their goods and supplies were being controlled. Trade was kept inside the British Empire, and for the most part, the colonists obeyed the acts. However it was one of the things that sparked tension between the colonies and England.
What caused the British government to take more interest in the American colonies?
There were several factors that all worked together to draw Britain's attention to the American colonies. The first factor was France and Spain's withdraw from the American colonies, leaving Britain as the only control. The thirteen colonies between South Carolina and Main had also grown in trade and economy. The colonies had also developed urban centers and large populations, this meant that the colonies had a strong economy and society independent from the British government which drew Britain's attention.
