Aside from Europeans, various African societies and kingdoms engaged in the slave trade by capturing and selling prisoners of war or individuals from rival groups. Notably, some North African empires, such as the Ottoman Empire and the Barbary States, participated in the slave trade by acquiring African slaves for labor and servitude. Additionally, Arab traders were involved in the trans-Saharan slave trade, transporting enslaved individuals across the Sahara Desert to markets in North Africa and the Middle East.

This trade would have lasting impacts on African societies and the world.
