The Middle Passage
The triangular trade route
The starting point of the triangular trade route was Europe, where goods such as guns, cloth, and alcohol were transported to Africa.
The triangular slave trade was a kind of trading network. It consisted of 3 journeys. The first route carried European goods to Africa to be exchanged for slaves. The second route, or middle passage, brought the Africans to the Americas to be sold as slaves. The third route carried American products such as, sugar, tobacco, and rice to Europe. There were two reasons for the invention of the triangular slave trade. The first reason was to benefit the industrial revolution of Europe. The death caused by European diseases led to the decline of the Native American population. For this reason the Europeans living in America needed slaves to work at their farms and homes.
