Rum

The Trans-Atlantic trade moved goods between Europe, Africa, and the Americas.

The Americas provided raw materials to Europe and to Africa they provided rum and food resources found only in the Americas. The rum was produced from the sugar cane plantations which required the work of African slaves.
