Why were so many African Americans brought to north American as slaves?
Slavery was common in many parts of the world and people of all colors were slaves. When the US needed more slaves, the cheapest at the time were from Africa. African tribes would fight each other and sell off the captives to anyone willing to pay for them. Dutch traders would meet with the African tribes and purchase the slaves, than deliver them to whatever part of the world had the highest demand for them. At the time, the US was in a growth period and needed more labor and Africa was in a state of war and had an excess of slaves for sale.
What was the main reason European countries desired African slaves?

So i don't think the African slaves were really targeted, it was just from where the explorers sailed to.
