3 © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. EXPLANATION: Slavery was a key element of: 1.the first two periods of European contact with the rest of the world A fundamental element in the first two periods of European imperial ventures in the Americas was the presence of slavery. By the eighteenth century, the slave population of the New World consisted almost entirely of a black population that had either recently been forcibly imported from Africa or born to slaves whose forebearers had been forcibly imported from Africa. Both the forced migration of so many people from one continent to another and the mid-Atlantic plantation economies that such slave labor supported were unprecedented in history. 16.01 E

The British merchant and West Indian planters lobbied Parliament to relieve Spanish intervention in their trade. 16.07 E

Pitts colonial vision, however, extended beyond the Saint Lawrence valley and the Great Lakes basin. Never had Great Britain or any other European power experienced such a complete worldwide military victory. 16.09 E
