The British were the dominant nation of the slave trade.
Robert Yates was opposed to the slave trade, viewing it as morally reprehensible and detrimental to society. As a delegate to the Constitutional Convention, he expressed concerns about the implications of slavery on the nation's values and future. Yates believed that the continuation of the slave trade would undermine the principles of liberty and justice. His opposition reflected a broader sentiment among some Founding Fathers who recognized the ethical contradictions of slavery in a nation founded on ideals of freedom.
The slave trade has never ceased to be. Its existence has been thousands of years, thus you could say modern slave trade is not very modern at all. The first signs of a slave trading empire was the Arabs and they still are involved with slavery to this day, but nowadays modern slave trading has probably been the biggest in places of South America, especially Brazil. I hope this has answered your question!
slaves hence the name Atlantic SLAVE trade
The Atlantic slave trade in the 1700s was characterized by a rapid expansion driven by the demand for labor in plantations, particularly in the Americas, and was marked by high mortality rates during the Middle Passage. By the 1800s, while the transatlantic slave trade continued, it faced increasing moral opposition and legal restrictions, culminating in several countries abolishing the trade. Additionally, the focus shifted more towards internal slave markets and the consolidation of slavery within the United States, as opposed to the large-scale importation seen in the 1700s.
