AP European History
Unit 3 – Absolutism and Constitutionalism
Topic 3.4
If colonies had resisted European mercantilism more effectively, how might this have changed the course of global trade?
Decentralization of global trade, with increased regional autonomy and less control by European powers.
Other continents outside Europe - like Africa or Asia - would dominate global trade instead despite their own colonial status during the period.
The world would have moved directly towards globalization without any form of nationalistic or protectionist policies ever being adopted.
Global trade would cease entirely due to widespread conflict between colonies and mother countries.
