The slave route is commonly referred to as the "Middle Passage." This term describes the brutal journey that enslaved Africans were forced to endure while being transported across the Atlantic Ocean to the Americas. Conditions on these ships were horrific, with overcrowding, disease, and malnutrition leading to high mortality rates among the captives. The Middle Passage was a central part of the transatlantic slave trade, which had devastating impacts on African societies and the economies of the Americas.
