Question

1. label the 3 stages of the triangular trade on the map. (what/who goes where? what was being moved?)

Explanation:

The Triangular Trade connected Europe, Africa, and the Americas (the map shows these three regions: Europe at top-left, Africa at bottom-right, Americas at top-right). Each stage involved specific goods/people being transported:

1. Stage 1: Ships departed Europe (Western Europe, like Britain, France, Portugal) carrying manufactured goods (guns, cloth, tools, rum) to West Africa.
2. Stage 2: In West Africa, the manufactured goods were traded for enslaved African people, who were then transported across the Atlantic Ocean (the "Middle Passage") to the Americas (North, Central, or South America, or Caribbean islands).
3. Stage 3: Ships left the Americas for Europe, carrying raw materials and cash crops produced by enslaved labor, such as sugar, cotton, tobacco, rice, and indigo.

Answer:

1. Stage 1 (Europe → Africa): Manufactured goods (guns, cloth, rum, tools) are transported from Western Europe to West Africa.
2. Stage 2 (Africa → Americas): Enslaved African people are transported from West Africa to the Americas (the "Middle Passage").
3. Stage 3 (Americas → Europe): Raw materials/cash crops (sugar, cotton, tobacco, rice) are transported from the Americas to Western Europe.
