Embargoes most negatively affect a domestic market by depriving domestic producers of needed goods, restricting their ability to trade.
An embargo consists on a government order that restricts commerce or exchange with certain country or the exchange of specific goods. An embargo is created because of unfavorable political or economic situations between nations. An embargo is created in an attempt to isolate a country and entails difficulties for its governing body, forcing it to act on the issue that led to the embargo.
