Scotland's involvement in the slave trade was through its participation in the British Empire, which heavily profited from the trade in enslaved people. Scottish merchants and shipowners were involved in transporting enslaved Africans to the Americas, and there were also plantations owned by Scots in the Caribbean that relied on enslaved labor. Scotland has since acknowledged its role in the transatlantic slave trade and has taken steps to address this collective responsibility.
