The Slave Trade Triangle.

During the slave trade there were three stages (hence the name "the slave trade triangle").

In the first stage, Europeans bought enslaved Africans in exchange for goods shipped from Europe.

In the second stage, Africans were forced onto ships to go across the Atlantic Ocean to America (also known as the "middle passage"). When finally reaching America, the Africans that had survived the intensely long journey were sold as slaves to work on plantations

Finally, in the third stage, the Europeans would travel back to Europe loaded with goods produced on plantations using slave labour.

It would take up to one whole year for the slave trade triangle to be completed.
