Answer:
In the final leg of the triangular trade, ships carried American goods to be sold in Europe.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Atlantic Triangular Trade is the term used to describe a set of European-directed trade relations between the metropolises and the various overseas dominions, of a transcontinental character supported by three geopolitical and economic vertices: Europe, Africa and America.
In the initial leg of the triangular trade, ships loaded with manufactured products, such as firearms, rum, Asian cotton fabrics, iron, jewelery of little value, among other articles of lesser commercial value, departed. The main destination was Africa, where slaves were exchanged for these products.
In this second leg of the triangular trade (Africa-Americas), many of the slaves died aboard the ships, where they crowded under infrahuman conditions in which many did not resist the voyage, which ended up being no great harm to the slave traders, who they would buy them at relatively low prices, so there would be no point in them providing better conditions to these captives during the crossing, and then the more crowded their holds were, the greater the profit. Arriving in the Americas, surviving slaves were sold to the owners of mines and plantations in exchange for their products: sugar, tobacco, gold and silver coins. The third leg of the trade triangle was completed with the purchase by Europe of these American products.
