Europeans sought slaves primarily for economic reasons. The demand for labor in plantations and mines in the Americas and the Caribbean grew significantly due to the lucrative production of cash crops like sugar, tobacco, and cotton. Enslaved Africans provided a cheap and abundant labor force vital for maximizing profits in these industries. Additionally, the transatlantic slave trade became deeply entrenched in European colonial economies, reinforcing the demand for enslaved individuals.
