This is an paragraph that was in are textbook. How would I sum this up but still capture what it is saying. I find it to be kind of confusing and I don't understand what it is saying. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You!
Chesapeake tobacco and Caribbean and Brazilian sugar were shipped to Europe, where they were in demand. The profits paid for African laborers and European manufactured goods. The African Coastal rulers received their payment for slave cargoes in European manufactures and East Indian textiles. Europeans purchased slaves from Africa for resale in their colonies and acquired sugar and tobacco from America and dispatched their manufactuerers everywhere.
