slaves were brought to the new world in the first place because the Europeans had found these lands and wanted to plant sugar canes,tobacco,and later on cotton and rice and needed people to work on the plantations so they went to Africa and brought the Africans to work on the plantations as slaves.

How did slavery evolve from the time of its orgin to the outbreak of the american revolution?

Slavery is as old as man. From the very first man took slaves as booty of war. Ancient Greek pirates sold and took slaves all over the ancient world. In the American colonies the first slave arrived in 1619 and grew from there until in 1860 there were 6 million slaves. The Revolution didn't change slavery and many of the British promises given to slaves were broken. One place African Americans could be free and earn income was American ships. Even today slavery still exists and there are 25 million slaves in the world. Most of them are women and children that are slaves in the sexual industry.
