Most African slaves were sent to the Americas, particularly to the Caribbean and Brazil, during the transatlantic slave trade. The demand for labor on sugar, tobacco, and cotton plantations led to the forced transportation of millions of Africans. Additionally, North America received a significant number of enslaved Africans, particularly in the southern states. Overall, the Americas became the primary destination for enslaved Africans from the 16th to the 19th centuries.

What mutual benefits for first nation people and europeans were consequences of the fur trade?

Fur trades were mutually beneficial for both groups of people. Fur was in high demand in Europe, and so Europeans had Native people get animal furs for them to send back to Europe and make lots of money from. Native people in return were given handy things that they had not had before, such as guns, pots and pans, etc. (They were also given things that weren't so great, like smallpox infected blankets. Not good.) Hope that helps!


What might happened if atahualpa had told Pizarro he accepted Christianity?

More than likely as the main goal was to get gold to send back to Spain and the indians were the only available not quite human (to the Spanish) labor force very little would have changes with the conversion of the natives to Christianity.

How did the treatment of Native Americans reflect the different interests of the Spanish and the French explorers?

The chief goal of the Spanish was to extract the mineral wealth, such as gold and silver, and send it back to Europe. The natives were used in the manner of slaves to do this, and very little effort was put forth to establish positive relationships with the native people. The French, on the other hand, were interested in the trade of furs in the New World. This required the cooperation of the natives, thus efforts were put forth to establish alliances with them.

How many people in Africa are African-American?

Not a significant number. Though some could consider those in Liberia to be the most "african-american", since Liberia was established to send black slaves from the US "back" to Africa. To be African-American presumably means that your ancestry is in Africa and you are in America. This is a rather outdated term and not descriptive, however, since most "African-Americans" living in America know little of their ancestry in Africa and as are established in America as any other person. They feel the same culture shock, etc, while in Africa.
