Raw Materials and markets for British products.
African Markets Overview ended in 2008.
Apart from trade, Canada has probably given most when Britain needed it - particularly during the two World Wars. Canadian forces made up a substantial part of the British Empire forces in both wars. In World War Two the Canadian navy (which grew to be the world's 3rd largest) was vitally important in ensuring the Atlantic was kept open to British shipping.
The Southern colonies are forced to sell their raw materials to their northern masters at a very low price, (sometimes the raw materials are exchanged for protection, from the north itself) the northern masters then use techniques stolen from the south to process the raw materials into products, this is where all the extra value is added, usually by employing illegal immigrants (the very ones they have driven out of business) the products are then sold back to the southern colonies and sold on to the northern markets at a huge profit. Eg. Germany is the 4th largest coffe exporter in the world but it grows no coffee. All the profit is made in Germany, not at source, the south.
