What did Europeans first sought in West africa?

Europeans first saw West Africa as a new territory to obtain spices and agricultural products. West Africa was also a place for Europeans to trade their own goods.


How did both slavery and antislavery lead Americans and Europeans to become involved with Africa?

Slavery led Americans and Europeans to become involved with Africa by decreasing their population. The Africa's population decreased as the amount of people being put into slavery increased. Also, the transatlantic slave trade affected the African society through the internal slave trade. Antislavery led to Americans and Europeans to become involved with Africa through their crusades. Antislavery reformers wanted to influence the African American into Christianity. The various efforts by antislavery groups began to impact Africa in the first half of the nineteenth century. The main goal of antislavery groups was to initiate a new African economy by substituting new peaceful trade in tropical goods for the slave trade. Their main goals were to develop free trade and spread Christianity.


Did Africa enslave other Race of people?

No, Africa did not enslave other races of people. The transatlantic slave trade involved the forced transportation and enslavement of Africans by Europeans and Americans, primarily from the 16th to 19th centuries. While there were instances of slavery within Africa prior to the arrival of Europeans, it was not based on race but on social, economic, or political factors.


When did the europeans discover Africa?

In the 19th Century. Europe owned practically all of Africa then, but not all of these African possessions were conquered in an outright military way. In some cases the Europeans arrived as traders and explorers, and before long they were administrators.
