Manufactured goods from Europe such as textiles and weapons, raw goods from America such as cotton and rice, and obviously slaves from Africa.
Normally as an auction set of theme
rum, sugar (molasses), and slaves
Slaves were worth a lot of money because they can do a lot of work and many people wanted slaves to work under them, so slave trade increased and as that increased trade with Muslim merchants increased!!! AMAZING!!! If they (slaves) were in Africa, they were lucky because they had a little chance to escape to liberty. They had to work hard or marry a free person to be exposed to liberty!!!
