Which of the following is true of French trade after the Seven Years War?
  1. It became virtually non-existent.
  2. It remained the same.
  3. The French allied with the British to dominate the seas.
  4. It increased significantly.
  5. France empowered its colonies to trade freely.
Explanation
Answer: D - French trade increased significantly after the Seven Years War. In fact, French trade with America and the East doubled between the end of the Seven Years War and 1785, in spite of the territorial losses France experienced. Britain's unequivocal victory also greatly expanded opportunities for trade, which increased at a greater rate than France's in the same period.
