The Transalantic Slave Trade

The Transalantic Slave Trade lasted from the sixteen-hundreds to the nineteen-hundreds, of which the enslaved people where usually brought to the Americas. Slaves from Africa were required since the Native population was dieing due to dieses, and indentured servants were not working.

Many goods that Europe wanted from the New World could not be produced in Europe, and reqiured a large work force to grow. Western and central africa was where the majority of the slaves came from. Though most of the slaves Europeons bought were from Africans who captured the slaves in wars.
