Answer:

The statement is true. Ship routes that were called Triangular Trade were three-legged journeys that traveled between different countries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangular trade was a commercial route established in the Atlantic Ocean from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries, and therefore can be considered a long-standing historical phenomenon. It involved three continents and its route formed a kind of triangle between Europe, Africa and America.

The objective of this route was to capture slaves in Africa, transfer them to America to work in mines and plantations, export raw materials produced with slave labor in America to Europe, produce products manufactured in Europe, and exchange those products by slaves in Africa, repeating the cycle.
