Slavery has occurred for a long time throughout history, and all sorts of groups have been enslaved. The majority of slaves don't necessarily originate from any single location. But the term slave did come from Vikings capturing and selling of Slavic peoples back around the 500's, (notice that slavery did occur prior to that). Since that time, slavery has occurred all over the globe within all sorts of cultures, so a geographical location from which slaves most come from doesn't exist. If you want to be fancy about it... most slaves come from "oppression".

most slaves were gotten from Africa after the emergence of Long distance trade which later brought on board slave trade

it is in long distance trade that the out casts or the the slaves of kings were used to carry the goods that the traders bought to the coast ready for shipping but later on the slaves that carried these goods were later on sold

and due to industrial revolution in Europe, there was a high demand of slaves in Europe in order to provide labour in the plantations that provided raw materials to the European industries and so AFRICA provided a high number of slaves
