Liberia became a collection facility for the slave trade primarily due to its geographic location along the West African coast, which made it a convenient stop for slave traders. Additionally, the establishment of Liberia by the American Colonization Society in the early 19th century aimed to resettle freed African Americans, but it also inadvertently facilitated the continuation of the slave trade in the region. The local population was often caught in a cycle of exploitation and violence, as traders sought to meet the demands of the transatlantic slave market. As a result, Liberia's role in the slave trade reflected both its colonial history and the broader economic interests of the time.
