How did the british organize the shipment of slavesto the Americas?

The British organized the shipment of enslaved Africans to the Americas through a system known as the transatlantic slave trade, which involved the collaboration of British merchants, shipbuilders, and colonial planters. Enslaved individuals were captured in Africa, often through trade with local rulers or raids, and then transported on overcrowded ships across the Atlantic in brutal conditions. The triangular trade route connected Britain, Africa, and the Americas, where enslaved people were sold to work on plantations. This inhumane system was driven by the demand for labor in the Americas, particularly for cash crops like sugar and tobacco.
