Step-by-step explanation:
The Atlantic slave trade had Africans being sold and shipped out to America. This was happening during the 16th to 19th century.During this time about 10 to 12 million Africans were sold not only to America, but to Portugal too. This was all part of the triangular trade. The triangular trade is when one person ships something out to another person, and the other person ships something out to them. The Middle passage was where thousands of Africans had died or gotten sick on the ship. It was the most unbearable place for any to be. There wasn't enough oxygen, and because of this the slaves were allowed to go outside for a few hours that way they didn't die.
