Africa mainly traded with Europe in exchange for machinery, Africa were trading 80,000 slaves per year. Also more and more countries trading with Europe and then they would raid other countries for slaves. Slavery played a big part in Africa because Africa wanted more guns and machinery.
what was the return to Africa like for the freed slaves this is not an answer.
Europe got slaves from Africa by the triangular trade. Europe traded with Africa, Europe gave Africa guns, rum, gunpowder, and tools. Africa traded back with slaves
Most slaves are from West Africa.
The slaves weren't transported from BRITAN! They were transported from AFRICA to AMERICA!
Slaves were not "kidnapped" from Africa (t least not by Europeans). Warring tribes in Africa would capture prisoners from defeated tribes and they sold those prisoners to Europeans in exchange for weapons and other manufactured goods.
From Africa, Americans went and took them hostage, and traded them in Cuba for sugar. (Americans would capture them and trade with other Americans for cotton or sugar.)
hi ricky boby
it started after the civil war. when slaves were free, the kkks would capture the freed slaves at night. the kkks would hang the freed slaves on a tree. then when the slaves died the kkks would born there bodys.
Are you talking about the 3 stage trade between Europe, Africa, and Narth America? if so the first stage was to travel from Europe to Africa and capture slaves through battles between two tribes and trade tem for valuable things...possibly spices or guns.
first the europeans sailed to Africa and captured save and then travelled from Africa to America were they would sell the slaves for money
I am no history major, but from what i understand slaves were not generally bought. they were captured. there were some tribes that would sell their slaves they had captured from other tribes, but usually by the slaves were caught by the slave hunters. who would transport them to their markets. the golden triangle as it was called back in the gunboat deplomacy days was when a trader would sell opium in china, go to Africa and capture slaves and then after selling the slaves in America buy molassess and head back to England.
europeans would sail to Africa with their boats loaded with guns, alcohol etc (traditional british items). When they got to Africa they would exchange the guns, alcohol etc for human slaves. (at least at the start, as the slave trade progressed the sailors started to capture their victims) Then with their boats full of slaves they would sail to west indies/ south America and sell the slaves in exchange for coffee, gold, sugar. Then they would sail home and sell the coffee, gold, sugar for huge profit. This was known as the slave triangle.
The British people would go to Africa with guns, chains and whips. Sometimes they would supply this to the Africans who would help them capture other Africans for the British people.They would then store all the slaves on the ship (called the slaver) and would then take them to America where they would sell the slaves for cotton, tobacco and also sometimes money. They then go back to Britain and sell all the materials they have bought, and this keeps on continuing. This is what the slave trade is.
Buy them at a slave auction, or hire somone to capture a runaway one.
