Sierra Leone
Great Britain sought Sierra Leone as a colony primarily to establish a settlement for freed slaves and to serve as a base for anti-slavery operations. The British government aimed to provide a home for former enslaved people from the Americas, promoting humanitarian ideals while also addressing growing concerns about the Atlantic slave trade. Additionally, controlling Sierra Leone allowed Britain to expand its influence in West Africa and secure economic interests in the region.
The currency of Sierra Leone is called the Leone.
