Identify the four reasons why the Navigation Acts were not initially enforced by England. England was at war with France and wanted the loyalty of the colonies. The colonies were growing in strength. American merchants were competing with English merchants. A struggle was going on between the king of England and Parliament. Growing trade with the colonies gave more profits to the British. A great distance separated England and the colonies. The colonists followed the laws of the Navigation Acts.
