The first African colony to become independent under the control of freed American slaves was Liberia. Founded in the early 19th century by the American Colonization Society, Liberia was established as a settlement for freed African Americans. It declared its independence on July 26, 1847, becoming the first independent republic in Africa. The country’s creation and independence were heavily influenced by the desire to create a new home for freed slaves from the United States.

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.
The first African slaves used by Europeans were used by the Portuguese, on the island of Sao Tome, to grow sugarcane. The Spanish were the first to use African slaves in the Americas (in the Caribbean), and the first English colony to use African slaves was Jamestown, Virginia (which was the first English colony in the New World). However, long before Europeans used African slaves, the Africans had slaves who were African!
