Slave trade triangle

What is the Slave Trade Triangle? The best-known triangular trading system is the transatlantic slave trade, that operated from the late 16th to early 19th centuries, carrying slaves, cash crops, and manufactured goods between West Africa, Caribbean or American colonies 

What is the First Passage? The First Passage was from Europe to Africa. The cargo on this passage was guns and weapons.

What is the Middle Passage? The middle was when the rest of the slaves were shipped to the USA and processed for auction. It was here where the Cotton, Tobacco, Sugar Cane and other products slaves produced were put on ship

What is the Third Passage? the third passage was when all the Cotton, Tobacco and other products are put back on ships and sent to Europe. Once the ships get to Europe, they are sold. Then more guns and weapons are purchased.
