The institution of African slavery evolved through a combination of factors such as the transatlantic slave trade, European colonialism, and the demand for labor in the Americas. Initially, Africans were enslaved by other Africans, but the transatlantic slave trade facilitated the mass transportation of Africans to the Americas to work on plantations. This system of forced labor became entrenched in the economies of European colonies and later the United States, shaping the institution of slavery as it is known today.

Slave trade
The transatlantic slave trade emerged from a variety of factors. The economy of the Americas was heavily dependent on production and export of field crops. The land owners were generally unskilled in hard manual labor, especially in the climate, and remained susceptible to many diseases in the Americas. African slaves were a cheap and hardy labor force. The European countries supplying the populace to the New World needed to ensure economic success for future expansion.
The word "transatlantic" says it: it was the trade across the Atlantic ocean from Africa to the Americas.
Africans were captured for enslavement through various means including raids, warfare, kidnapping, and trade with European slave traders. They were often sold by fellow Africans or European slave traders to work on plantations in the Americas. The transatlantic slave trade was brutal and dehumanizing, resulting in the forced migration of millions of Africans.
Some African rulers participated in the slave trade by capturing and selling slaves from rival tribes as a way to gain wealth and power. They collaborated with European slave traders who provided weapons and goods in exchange for slaves. This collaboration allowed these rulers to strengthen their own positions while contributing to the transatlantic slave trade.
