Did the European treat the africans fairly?

Well first of all the answer to your question is no. The Europeans treated African slaves horribly. They made them work all day. Slave trading between Africa and Europe began with the Portuguese, who were the first European nation to make continuous contact with Africa. African slaves were mainly taken to Europe to be used on a land that needed slaves. If a slave got tired, and slowed down or stopped, they would get a punishment. Sometimes slave owners would rape their slaves, raping is one of the many cruel and mean things done to slaves. Raping a slave wasn't even against the law! Sometimes slaves were beaten so harshly that they nearly bled to death. Slaves couldn't have an education, and it very hard to escape slavery.


Under what conditions were slaves transported from Africa to Europe?

Slaves were transported from Africa to Europe primarily during the transatlantic slave trade, which operated from the 16th to the 19th centuries. They were forcibly captured or purchased by European traders, often through violent raids or negotiations with African leaders. The journey, known as the Middle Passage, involved overcrowded and inhumane conditions on ships, where many slaves suffered from disease, malnutrition, and abuse. Upon arrival in Europe, they were typically sold into forced labor, often in agriculture, domestic service, or other industries.

What was the main reason European countries desired African slaves?

I don't think they "desired" African slaves. At first many explorers brought back people from places they had visited on their voyages, but most of them died before the explorers could get the new slaves back to europe. So i don't think the African slaves were really targeted, it was just from where the explorers sailed to.
