The factors that led to the importation of Africans as slaves in the Americas was that there were sugar cane plantations and they needed labor, so they went over to Africa and got slaves, because it was free labor. The sugar cane was for rum, tea, and coffee. The Africans worked day and night whether it was out in the field or inside housework. After a while, the slaves began to try to escape, which would cut down the labor. Involved the Triangle between Africa, America's, and England. They all traded different things with each other, but in order to have things to trade, they needed labor and with the Africans they could have cheap labor with a profit.
