2. Which areas on the triangular trade benefited from the economic policy of mercantilism? Why

England benefited from the economic policy of mercantilism.

Mercantilism is the idea that the mother country gains wealth and power by controlling  the trade of its colonies.  

By taking products from America and then either creating manufactured goods or selling the original  products to other countries (foreign markets), England was able to profit from the wealth of goods found in America.
