Is mercantilism good or bad for european countries and why

Broadly speaking, Mercantilism was very good for European countries for a while but terrible for their colonies.

As a result, the relationship between the European countries and their colonies deteriorated making mercantilism good in the short term but bad in the long term.

that is because lower interest rates allowed people to work harder to make money. it multiplied like that and now the uno(not the game) is very strong.
