The Atlantic Slave trade had a distinct correlation to race and agriculture. Also, slavery in the pre-modern world was a casualty of war. If wars raged, the losing side would forfeit citizens to the winning side. They would keep them, and then return them after a certain amount of time. On the Atlantic Slave trade, it was just for forced labor.
What time period, and what continent(s) are you referring to???
One can't really speak of "nations" in terms of Africa at that time, but most of the West coast from present-day Mauritania to Angola was involved. These were the suppliers. They met ships from Portugal, Britain, France, Spain, the Netherlands, and America (in order of volume) and sold the slaves for trans-shipment.

It could be said that Wilberforce worked to abolish the slave trade for a good twenty years. In 1787, Wilberforce became leader of the parliamentary campaign of the Committee for the Abolition of the Slave Trade. Between 1789 and 1806, he attempted to pass numerous parliamentary bills against the slave trade, but was unsuccessful each time, as many of the members of parliament stood to profit from their own indirect involvement in the trade. It was not until 1806, when a change of tactics was suggested by maritime lawyer James Stephen, that Wilberforce achieved some success in his goal. The change of tactics involved introducing a bill to ban British subjects from aiding or participating in the slave trade to the French colonies. It was a smart move, as the majority of the ships were flying American flags, though manned by British crews and sailing out of Liverpool. The Foreign Slave Trade Act was quickly passed and the tactic proved successful. The final passing of Wilberforce's successful Abolition Bill occurred on 23 February 1807. The Slave Trade Act received the royal assent on 25 March 1807. This Act did not free those who were already slaves; it was not until 1833 that an act was passed giving freedom to all slaves in the British empire.

The Trans Atlantic slave trade went on between the 16th and 19th centuries. An estimated 12-15 million people were forced to migrate from Africa to the Western hemisphere during this time. The slaves were sold as laborers on plantations as well as domestic servants.
african slave trade was a horrible time
The slave trade in America in the 1700s was legal. The practice of buying and selling enslaved individuals was sanctioned by laws at both the national and state levels during this time period, particularly in the southern colonies. While there were some restrictions and regulations surrounding the slave trade, it was not outright illegal.
I would say that depends on the time period, but more than likely it was slaves so i would say African Americans since they would never have been in the Americas if it wasn't for the Europeans in the Atlantic Slave trade or "middle passage"
There were numerous inns in Liverpool during the slave trade, but an exact number is difficult to determine as records from that time period are incomplete. Liverpool's growth as a major slave trading port led to an increase in businesses to accommodate the influx of traders, ship crews, and other individuals involved in the trade.
There wasn't any North Atlantic trade. Ships and navagation weren't able to do that at that time.
at this time (1502) also called the renaissance the slave trade started. the slave trade ended late in the 18century
Slavery can never be justified.
Pirate Jean Laffitte was involved in the slave trade with multiple parties, including privateers, smugglers, and slave traders from various countries. The slave trade was lucrative and attracted a wide range of individuals seeking to profit from human trafficking during that time.
Parliament passed the Slavery Abolition Act in 1833.
