Answer and explanation:

After reading this task and going through some research on the topic, I conclude the following answer.

For starters, let's position ourselves on some historical background so we can understand what we are talking about.

Indentured servitude, which was first employed in the 17th and 18th century in order to cast labor from Europe to America, was then brought back to the spotlight in the 19th century and early 20th century after antislavery activism and movements met its peak of success in the 1800's.

The documents that would help assess the historical significance of indentured servitude in this period would be the following ones:

Herman Merivale, British Undersecretary of the Colonies, 1850.Editorial in the Natal Mercury, Itongati, South Africa, on the visit of Sir George Grey, British colonial governor, June 6, 1855.Principal Overseas Indentured Migrations 1834-1919.Indentured Labor in the Age of Imperialism, 1834-1922, edition of 1995.Photo and print collection of the Koninklijk Instituut voor Tall-, Land-en Volkenkunde, Leiden. Julius Eduard Muller, photographer. These pictures show Asian Indian indentured laborers awaiting assignment to work on sugar plantations in Suriname, 1885."General Statement of Asian Indian Inmigration to Mauritius", published by the British Government, 1949.British Guiana Indenture Agreement, 1895.Documents of Indentured Labour, South Africa, 1851-1917.

While, we can have enough information about it when we analyze the origin of some of the multinational companies that are still in the market, just because slavery was all but an industry for the different power houses and firms inside the region. There are still the traces of those firms which had a greater hand in the expansion of the slavery inside the different regions.While, there were a number of plantation across the American region, as there were landlords and plantations owners who were allowed to buy and sell the slaves. These plantations generated an enormousness revenue inside the region that helped in building the whole continent to a new level of economic and social development.Along, with which the different countries generated there profit through investment in the region by building the different level of companies or we can say firms. As, there were more foreign money present inside the region and the revenue generated was mostly received by the British rule, so we can analyze there economic situation and get more information from there as well.
