Explain what the Atlantic slave trade was and analyze its impact on both the Americas and Africa.

The Atlantic slave trade was a triangular (roughly triangular) route between Europe, Africa, North American Colonies, and South American Colonies. Slaves were exported from Africa to the Americas, then goods were sent to Europe from the colonies to be manufactured into goods to be sent to Africa and the Americas. The impact it had on the Americas was mostly beneficial until the later years when slavery was starting to be seen as inhumane. Its impact on Africa was bittersweet because tribes were losing people, but in return, they got manufactured goods and guns.
