Liberia was originally founded as a home in Africa for freed slaves, hence the name.
Liberia was settled by freed American slaves in the early 19th century. It was founded as a colony by the American Colonization Society as a place for freed African-Americans to return to Africa.
African slaves were brought to America to work on plantations and in other industries, and their enslavement was a result of labor demands and economic interests, not a direct replacement of American Indian workers. The exploitation of both African slaves and American Indians contributed to the growth of the American economy and the development of the nation.
The first African slaves were brought to the American colonies by the Spanish. They were located in the San Miguel de Gualdape colony, founded by Lucas Vasquez de Ayllon.
