英语语境:

When British production relations of capitalism were formed initially in the late 16th century, woolen goods became one of the most important export goods in Britain. The Tudor government encouraged commodity export with mercantilism policies, so that a number of foreign trading companies were established. In addition to normal commercial activities within their monopoly areas, they were also engaged in geographical discovery, naval looting as well as foreign affairs as diplomatic agents of the British government. These activities greatly promoted the development of British industry, and exerted a profound impact on British economic growth.
