Triangular trade took place during the days when sailing ships carried cargo between Europe, Africa, and America. Ships sailed from Africa to America, unloaded their cargoes of slaves at the colonies and took on rum, sugar, tobacco, furs, and other products before setting sail for European ports. The American goods were unloaded in Europe and replaced by European products wanted by the people in Africa, things like cloth, weapons, and salt. The usual sailing routes from Africa to America, America to Europe, and Europe to Africa followed the ocean currents and what were called the “trade winds”. Many ships also stopped at Caribbean island plantations where some slaves were exchanged for sugar and molasses, the molasses being used in New England to manufacture rum for export to Europe and Africa. Triangular trade ended shortly after the British government banned the slave trade throughout the British Empire in 1807.
i have no idea lol
Cotton and sugar primarily, also tobacco.
I believe it was fur goods. and maybe something else.
England exported a variety of goods to Africa and its colonies, including textiles, metalware, and manufactured goods. In particular, the Industrial Revolution led to an increase in the export of cotton fabrics and other finished products. Additionally, England traded items like rum and tobacco to the colonies, while importing raw materials such as sugar, cotton, and spices in return. This trade was a crucial component of the triangular trade system, linking Europe, Africa, and the Americas.
In the triangular trade, American colonies primarily exported raw materials such as tobacco, cotton, sugar, and timber to Europe. They also traded rum and fish, particularly to the West Indies. These exports were crucial for fueling the European economy and supporting the plantation system in the Caribbean. In exchange, the colonies imported manufactured goods and enslaved Africans, completing the triangular trade cycle.
As part of the triangular trade, the Americas exported various goods to Europe, including sugar, tobacco, cotton, and rum. These commodities were highly sought after and played a significant role in European economies. The trade also included raw materials like timber and indigo. This exchange contributed to the growth of European markets and the expansion of colonial economies.
Merchants carried rum and other goods from the New England colonies to Africa. Hope this heed
The triangular trade effect was a major boost to the incomes of colonial planters. Triangular trades are usually instituted between three regions when at least one of the regions has an export commodity that is not needed within its local region. Therefore, the planters were able to export their goods to a region where the products were needed and wanted.
The U.S. could be threatened by European colonies because they represented competition in the import and export of goods.
