Many slaves became Christian even when their "masters" were not Christian because many Christians were against slavery and the slaves were given hope. The slaves that were able to stay at the same places as their family clinged to that love as their faith and love were the only things that no one could take from them.

They also often got sick with different diseases.

The Africans were not enslaved by European countries as a result of the Spanish conquest of the Americas. It started shortly after Columbus arrived, but was a slow process. They needed the Africans because the Indian population was dwindling as a result of the hard labor they had to endure, of which they weren't used to before the conquests took place. They believed that the stronger African peoples were better equipped to handle such chores, so they started enslaving and trading Africans to many different countries who needed the extra hands working on plantations.
