The transatlantic slave trade began in the late 15th century, around the 1500s, and continued until the 19th century. It is commonly marked by the first major slave shipment in 1525 and saw millions of Africans forcibly transported to the Americas. The trade officially ended in different countries at various times, with Britain abolishing it in 1807 and the United States in 1808, while Brazil was one of the last countries to abolish the trade in 1888.

18th century
The greatest source of wealth for the Portuguese trade with Africa in the fifteenth century was the trade of gold. Portugal established profitable trading relationships with African kingdoms along the west coast to acquire gold, which became a major source of wealth and helped fund further exploration and expansion.
It was in the fifteenth century.
England began to dominate the transatlantic slave trade in the late 17th century, particularly from the 1700s onwards. By the 18th century, British ships were responsible for transporting a significant portion of enslaved Africans to the Americas. This dominance continued until the early 19th century when the British Parliament abolished the slave trade in 1807.
