Why did the colonists depend on europe for trade?

look down at the explanation, i really hope this helps!!

Explanation:

The colonists depended on Europe for trade because of the fluent market that flowed between North America and Europe. The English colonies, like Massachusetts Bay Colony for example, made a huge market out of fishing and relied heavily upon the ocean which was nearby where they settled. The Europeans loved this, and gave the colonists things in return, such as farming supplies or food.

i also think he is correct. i believe they came to washington to protest their rights.

there is no chart here so no one can answer this.
