Good Morning!

The colonists could export goods only to Britain.

Colonial laws established in Britain only gave this empire the power to commercialize with their colony in America, preventing parallel progress of American space in order to keep these lands in their domain. England's exploratory policies were a major part of the motivations for independence.

Hugs!
