Trading allows countries to obtain goods and services at a lower cost or of higher quality than they could produce themselves. It also enables countries to expand their markets and increase their economic growth and prosperity. While protecting domestic industries can sometimes be a factor, the overall goal of international trade is typically to benefit the participating countries mutually.
