Why did slave holders support settlement of freed slaves in Africa?

Remember that the slaves were freed by force, as a result of the Civil War, and not because their former slave masters had a change of heart and decided voluntarily to free their slaves. This creates a certain amount of hostility. The freed slaves had legitimate reasons to resent their former owners for having enslaved them, and the former slave owners resented the former slaves for having been freed, which they regarded as a form of theft, since slaves were valuable property, who in many cases had been purchased from slave dealers for a great deal of money. If the freed slaves were to return to Africa, a lot of social awkwardness could therefore be avoided.

Why was Africa the place for slaves?

Due to its low level of culture, and due to the natural strength of the black people.============================================When slaves were taken from Africa to America, it is important to remember that slavery was endemic across the WHOLE world. Slavery has been a pat of human culture since ancient times and did not only apply to black people. In Roman times most slaves were white and came from Europe.The particular slave trading that took black people to America was one of convenience and need. There was a triangle of ship travel from Europe laden with manufactured goods to exchange for slaves in Africa (slaves sold into slavery by black people). Across to America where the slaves were sold to work in sugar or cotton plantations (because there were not enough people there to do the work). Then back to Europe laden with Sugar and Cotton, to sell for money.

What was the significance of the Twenty Negro Law?

Probably the most significant part of the law was that it exempted one white male from confederate service per plantation of twenty or more slaves. Already a war that was, for the most part, to benefit the rich white planters, the twenty negro further promoted the division of classes in the south. In effect, the poor white yeomen were fighting for the benefit of planters who, themselves, did not have to fight.
