We'll start by defining both mercantilism and free enterprise. Mercantilism is commercialism and trading . Commercialism is making the most possible profit. Free enterprise is a type of economy in which businesses are free from government control. It compares in that things can come from outside the country. However in a mercantilism society businesses may not be free to decide what they sell.
