The slave trade
The slave trade triangle involved three main routes: Europe to Africa to acquire slaves, Africa to the Americas to sell slaves, and the Americas back to Europe with goods produced by slave labor. This triangular trade route facilitated the transatlantic slave trade between the 16th and 19th centuries.
The countries that were involved in the slave trade were: Europe and western Africa :D Europe and "West" Africa are Continents.
The transatlantic slave trade took place between the continents of Europe, Africa and America from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The reason this trade is called the triangular trade is because it was usually made up of three different voyages which formed a triangular trade pattern. Some slave trading voyages were made directly between the continents of America and Africa.
