Years: 1651 - 1651
The English government seeks to regulate trade in the American colonies as early as 1651.
On October 9, the Navigation Acts are passed to ensure that trade enriches only Britain, barring trade with other nations.
Some will argue that the economic impact is minimal on the colonists, but the political friction that the acts trigger is more serious, as the merchants most directly affected are most politically active.
