Ok so... I am witting a DBQ on the Articles of Confederation and I know pretty much everything there is to know about it.
Except one thing.
In one document it talks about how the British were hurting American trade by imposing trade restrictions on the nation. I want to know what kind of trade restrictions were they? What form did they take? Were they just taxes or did the British actually refused to let the United States trade with other parts of the British Empire?

Mercantilism. Can only trade with England. That's how mercantilism works, for the benefit of the mother country. Was not enforced historically, but it was in the Townshend Acts and other laws from the 1760s and 1770s. There are taxes too, but trade restrictions were found to be especially objectionable. Look for mercantilism and/or salutary neglect. I don't know the time period for the DBQ, but this would not be the case after the revolution, because, you know, we're independent.

As the above person stated, Britain forbade trade with other countries to the United States. What form of forbidding did this take? Well, Britain had the force of the world's largest navy at their disposal to coerce the U.S. to trade only with them. Plus, British parliament enacted tariffs on goods that were supposed to go to the U.S. that were being shipped by other countries, so in that way, other countries were discouraged to trade with the U.S. at the risk of paying more with tariffs than they would get from trading with the U.S.
