Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -… three stages of the so-called triangular trade, in which arms, textiles, and wine were shipped from Europe to Africa, enslaved people from Africa to the Americas, and sugar and coffee from the Americas to Europe.
Detailed explanation-2: -Indigo was a prized commodity, and the knowledge of how to grow the plants, extract the dye, and use the dye came to the Americas with African slaves.
Detailed explanation-3: -The first leg of the triangle was from a European port to one in West Africa (then known as the “Slave Coast"), in which ships carried supplies for sale and trade, such as copper, cloth, trinkets, slave beads, guns and ammunition. When the ship arrived, its cargo would be sold or bartered for slaves.
