The major factor that contributed to the rise and prosperity of the so-called Ashanti Empire in Ghana was the brisk trade in gold, ivory and slaves, conducted with the Europeans, notably the Portuguese and the British. Slavery was ubiquitous in Ghana itself, slaves often being used as human sacrifices, and local chiefs provided the European trading posts with all the slaves they needed for transport to the Americas. Nowadays Ghana likes to look back on its slavery past as a time in which its own slaves were treated humanely and where any form of harsh treatment of slaves (apart from the sacrifices, presumably) was frowned upon by Ghanan society, and where children born out of slaves were automatically freed.
