question 1
(PUC-RJ) The foundation of Virginia and New England, at the beginning of the 17th century, made England enter the colonial dispute in the New World. In the vast domains of the Iberian empires in the Americas, very diverse and complex societies were produced – for example, those of the V.R. from New Spain, from the Caribbean region and from V.R. from Peru. However, even in the British colonies, since their formation, strong differences ended up forging very different societies. This diversity was an expression of several factors, including:
I – The fact that the purposes of the London and Plymouth Trading Companies were radically different, as were the populations they transported to America.
II – The predominance of mercantile and slave interests in the colonies of Virginia, to the south, contrasting with the more religious and political motivations of the Puritans who guided the occupation of the colonies to the north.
III - The difficulty of the Anglican Church to assert its authority and administration in the northern colonies, cradle of religious intolerance,
loci of religious separatists – of the Congregationists, Presbyterians, Baptists and Anabaptists, etc.IV – King James I's prior decision to offer private colonies to grantees or owners – such as William Penn and lord Baltimore – in the Middle Colonies region.

Second Navigation Act of 1660. In: Pierre Deyon. mercantilism. São Paulo: Perspectiva, 1973, p. 94-95.
Through the Navigation Act of 1660, the English government:
- it established that all goods traded by any European country were transported by English ships.
- it monopolized its own trade and boosted the English shipping industry, further increasing England's presence in the world's seas.
- it faced powerful France by taking away its privileged position as a commercial intermediary on a world level.
- it developed its navy, encouraged industry, expanded the Empire, opening new international markets for its agricultural surplus.
- it protected the English products, raw materials and manufactured, which should have their exit difficult, so as to generate accumulation of precious metals in the English Kingdom.
