Detailed explanation-1: -The effect of slavery in Africa Some states, such as Asante and Dahomey, grew powerful and wealthy as a result. Other states were completely destroyed and their populations decimated as they were absorbed by rivals. Millions of Africans were forcibly removed from their homes, and towns and villages were depopulated.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Transatlantic Slave Trade enriched many white people across occupations and industries-from early European colonists to priests and popes, shipbuilders to rum and textile producers, bankers to insurers-and generated the capital used to build some of America’s greatest cities and most successful companies.
Detailed explanation-3: -Furthermore, the Atlantic trade led to the formation of semi-feudal classes in Africa that collaborated with Europeans to sanction the oppression of their own people. These classes came from the African aristocracy and middlemen who facilitated the capture and sale of Africans and made substantial gains from the trade.
Detailed explanation-4: -Consistent with the historic evidence, the data indicate that the effects of the slave trades are through ethnic frac-tionalization, weakened states, and a decline in the quality of domestic institutions.
