How long did it take the slaves to get a cross the Atlantic ocean?

The transatlantic journey for enslaved Africans, known as the Middle Passage, typically took between six to eight weeks. However, the duration could vary based on factors such as weather, ship conditions, and the specific route taken. Some voyages were shorter, while others could last several months, especially if there were delays or detours. The experience was often brutal and overcrowded, leading to high mortality rates during the passage.


What caused the middle passage to take place?

The Middle Passage was primarily driven by the transatlantic slave trade, which emerged in the 16th century as European colonies in the Americas required a large labor force to cultivate cash crops like sugar, tobacco, and cotton. To meet this demand, European traders and colonial powers forcibly captured and transported millions of Africans across the Atlantic Ocean under horrific conditions. Economic incentives, including the profitability of slave labor and the growth of plantation economies, fueled this brutal practice, leading to the establishment of a vast trade network that dehumanized countless individuals.
