The passage where slaves were traded was called the "Transatlantic slave trade" or simply the "slave trade." It was a horrific practice where millions of Africans were captured, transported, and sold as slaves to the Americas from the 16th to the 19th centuries.
Those who helped slaves escape to freedom were called abolitionists or conductors on the Underground Railroad. They provided shelter, food, and safe passage to those seeking to escape slavery in the United States.
Slaves were obtained through various methods such as capture during wars and raids, kidnapping, trading, or being born into slavery through generational enslavement. In many cases, individuals were also enslaved as punishment for crimes or as a result of financial debts.
Slaves were exchanged for goods such as weapons, textiles, alcohol, and other items. They were traded as commodities for profit and economic gain by European slave traders.
The rule of slaves was called slavery. It involved owning individuals as property and forcing them to work without pay.
In Spanish colonies, slaves were forced to work on plantations, in mines, and in households. They were subjected to harsh living and working conditions, with little to no rights or freedoms. Slavery was a central part of the colonial economy in Spanish territories.

The middle passage
The middle passage was a terrible experiance for the slaves as they were all chained up lying on wooden pannels which would often have more slaves above them, they we're fed disgusting nasty food and were abused physically and mentaly. They were often exercised and given fresh air once or twice a day and were made to dance etc. They were treated like this for many many weeks, even months. So thats why:) Writen by a 13yr old girl from scotland;D
