Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade
The slaves were taken from Africa, back to the Americas of Europe
Africa
9.5 million.
Ships....... they didn't have good planes.
They took them to Europe and the US. They were sold at a small price.
The middle passage was a passage taken by boat from Africa to Spain for slave trade conducted by the US in the sixteen hundreds. It was a very brutal and dangerous trip as the slaves were treated horribly and many often died in the trip. My knowledge is basic, but I hope this helps.

The trade route from Africa to the West Indies is called the 'blood passage' because slaves were picked up in Africa and taken to the West Indies. Slavers used to pick up far too many slaves for their ships to hold and so many died on the journey or were thrown overboard.
America and England from Africa
West Africa
Africans from West Africa were taken to the Western Hemisphere and sold as slaves to the European colonists.
many slaves were taken from the West Coast of Africa. Their chiefs were bribed with alcohol and weapons made by the British. They were taken to America where they worked on the cotton plantations and, to a lesser extent, coffee plantations
