In the 1700s, West Africa mostly provided enslaved workers who were sent to the Americas. This transatlantic slave trade was a significant part of world trade during that time, with millions of Africans forcibly taken from their homelands and sold into slavery in the Americas to work on plantations, particularly in the production of sugar, tobacco, and other cash crops. This had profound social, economic, and demographic implications for both the African continent and the Americas.
