Question

how did charles ii change trade laws involving the colonies after he was restored to the throne? (1 point) he removed all tariffs. he allowed the colonies to trade with any european country. he limited colonial trade to only trade certain goods with england or english colonies. he eliminated the slave trade.

Explanation:

To answer this, we recall Charles II's trade policies after the Restoration. The Navigation Acts under his rule aimed to control colonial trade. He limited colonial trade to trade certain goods (like tobacco, sugar) only with England or English colonies to benefit England's economy. Removing all tariffs (first option) is incorrect. Allowing trade with any European country (second) goes against mercantilist policies. Eliminating the slave trade (fourth) is wrong as the slave trade expanded during this period.

Answer:

C. He limited colonial trade to only trade certain goods with England or English colonies.
