Best Answer

There were many things traded along the Triangular Trade Route. First of all, Europeans gave America things like onions, olives, turnips, coffee beans, peaches, Pears, grains (wheat, rice, barley, oats), livestock (cattle, sheep, pigs, horses), and (most importantly) disease. Smallpox, measles, and other such sicknesses affected native Americans more because they were not immune to them like the Europeans were. In return for these things, colonies in the Americas gave Europeans pumpkins, turkeys, pheasants, potatoes, tomatoes, corn, vanilla, cacao, beans, pineapples, tobacco, and (most importantly) sugar and spices. Remember that before this, Europeans were eating plain bread (maybe the rich got a bit of butter) and barley or oatmeal with nothing on it. When they got sugar and spices, they went crazy for it. Europeans also gave textiles and wool to Africa in return for slaves that would be shipped to their colonies in the Americas.

triangular trade can be sumed up as a 3 way deal between britain the united states and Africa

the US transported raw goods to Britain where Britain manufactuered it into finished goods and traded those goods to Africa. In return Africa would send slaves to America to keep the cycle going

Hope it helped.

Africa - slaves are traded to slavers for guns, tobacco, rum, etc.

America - slaves are sold to buyers for cash.

Europe - slave traders buy more barter supplies before returning to Africa.
