The correct matches are as follows:

Textile-relating to cloth or woven fabric. It can also be used to refer to the designs on cloth and other fabric.

Mercantilism-an economic policy in which a country sought to export more than it imported. This policy was popular before capitalism and was the policy used by the European countries in their imperialist ambitions. The major European nations sought to gain colonies worldwide so that they could benefit from the resources that these colonies provided; this was also so that the other Powers would not be able to have access to certain resources or as much resource. So that Power would be able to export more than it imported thereby maintaining or increasing its power.

Maritime-relating to the sea. An example of this word in daily language would be "Maritime School" which is an institution that teaches students about the equipment, vessels and trade associated with the sea.

Isolationism-A political policy in which a country closes itself off from contact with other countries. This 'closing off' does not mean that the country places physical barriers around itself but rather that it chooses to avoid getting involved in the international policies and politics. The best example to illustrate this would be the United States of America leading up to and during World War I. Despite the increasing hostilities prior to the outbreak of the Great War and the horrors that took place during the War, the people of the United States were against their government getting involved in the affairs of other countries.
