* Slaves:
* African slaves were imported to work on plantations and other labor-intensive industries in the colonies.
Some of the most valuable exports of the colonies were sugar and tobacco. These crops were grown in the Caribbean islands and the Chesapeake region of North America, respectively. They were in high demand in Europe, and their cultivation and trade made these colonies very wealthy.
