Explain six factors that led to the decline of the Trans- Atlantic trade.
Answer:
- The development of Industrial Revolution in Europe shifted the demand from slaves to
agricultural produce e.g. Palm oil.
- The need to retain Africans in their homelands so as to produce raw materials for
export to Europe.
- The attainment of independence by the USA left Britain without colonies where she should
take the slaves to work.
- The rise of Humanitarian in Britain made up of missionaries and some parliamentarians
Pressurized the British government to abolish the slave trade and slavery.
- The development of the legitimate trade which was more profitable replaced slave trade and slavery.
- Britain influenced other European countries to stop slavery and slave trade by
signing anti slave trade treaties.
