Step-by-step explanation:

The slave trade led to depopulation of Africa.This is because thousands of Africans including men and women were taken overseas to be sold and work.This led to its depopulation.

The slave trade led to loss of manpower or human resource since the able bodied who were the most active members in Africa were taken away as slaves .This affected African nations since most of the youth were into farming
