The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade (15th–19th century) was a system in which European powers like Britain, Portugal, and Spain transported millions of Africans to the Americas for forced labor. It operated through the Triangular Trade, linking Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Captured Africans were shipped across the Atlantic in brutal conditions known as the Middle Passage, where many died. Those who survived were enslaved on plantations producing goods like sugar and cotton. The trade declined in the 19th century due to abolition movements, but its impact still shapes societies today.
