Europeans were able to dominate and exploit Africans due to a combination of technological superiority, military power, and strategic alliances. Advances in weaponry, such as rifles and artillery, gave European forces a significant advantage in conflicts. Additionally, the weakening of African states due to internal divisions and the impact of the slave trade made it easier for Europeans to establish control. Economic interests, driven by the demand for resources and labor, further fueled their exploitation of the continent.

Why did europeans see Africans as a better a source of labor than native Americans-?

Because Africans were strangers to the Americans, so they wouldn't have allies or places to hide. Additionally, the Native Americans had much weaker immune systems than Africans because Africans had developed around the same livestock that Europeans had. This made the Africans more disease resistant. Africans were also able to put up with muich more abuse, on average, than Native Americans without fainting or dying.

How was possible for europeans to force human beings into enslavement?

Europeans were able to force human beings into enslavement through a combination of military power, economic interests, and the dehumanization of these individuals. The Atlantic slave trade was fueled by the demand for labor in European colonies, and Africans were captured and sold into slavery through violent means. European colonial powers justified enslavement by portraying Africans as inferior and, therefore, suitable for forced labor.
