Presentation transcript:

The Atlantic System The systems of trade connecting Africa, Europe, and the Americas

Triangular Trade Stage One: Goods to Africa In the first stage, merchants shipped cotton goods (bought from India), weapons, and manufactured goods to Africa in exchange for slaves or gold. Africans vying for power (Dahomey, Ashante) used guns and luxury items to compel and cajole their way to larger territorial conquests

Stage Two: The Middle Passage Africans were taken across the Atlantic to the Americas and sold. Plantocracy rested on slave trade to manufacture sugar for growing consumption. Majority to Brazil, Caribbean

Stage Three: Goods to Europe Merchants sent the plantations’ products to Europe, where they were used to buy manufactured products to be sold in Africa. Europe’s sea power allowed them to be the prime movers in the trading systems of the world, yielding dynamic economies and leading to sea- based Empires and power (eg: 1600s - Dutch, s - British)
