Introduction
“The Slave trade was organized to maximize profits for the European Traders. To what extent is this statement true?” In 1640 tobacco was replaced by sugar as the main cash crop. The change from small-scale to large-scale agriculture in the West Indies, led to the change in recruiting labour.
The slave trade refers to the historic trade within Africa with mainly black men, which included systems of servitude and slavery and the European traders involved also are the European people who acquired the slaves in order to make a profit from them .Therefore, the writer is interested in all of the evidence and documentation that would clearly support this topic that the European Traders did everything in their ability to maximize their profit.
It is the writer’s intention to pursue a collection of primary sources in an effort to gather information for this project. After collecting the data, the project presented will be processed through pictures and discussions.
