Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The profits of slavery were plowed back into the economy and helped to develop industry in Britain and its colonies. Manchester became an important textile center , where factories made cloth from cheap slave-picked cotton. Much of this cloth was sold back to the Africans in return for more slaves.
