In the eighteenth century, slavery was integral to global commercial activities, particularly in the transatlantic economy. Enslaved Africans were forcibly transported to the Americas, where they provided labor for lucrative cash crops such as sugar, tobacco, and cotton, driving economic growth in Europe and the colonies. This system not only fueled the triangular trade, linking Europe, Africa, and the Americas, but also contributed to the wealth of European nations and the rise of mercantilism. The exploitation of enslaved labor thus formed a cornerstone of global trade networks and economic structures during this period.
