Atlantic Slave Trade:

Africans that were being transported primarily to the Americas to be enslaved. This was typically around the 16th and 19th century.

Explanation:

After the colonists of Europe arrived to the Americas, they weren't the only ones that were on the land. Native Americans were already in the Americas, and it would be their land. The colonists started to execute the Native Americans so they could have the land to themselves. The colonists enslaved them, in other words, they made them into slaves to work for them. The Native American population started to decrease tremendously, so the colonist don't have a lot of people to work for them. That is what led to the colonists developing the Atlantic Slave Trade. They enslaved Africans, and sent them to the Americas to become slaves for the colonists that were there. They got slaves from Africa because they didn't have enough slaves to work for them and work to build their colonies, so they got others from another continent to work for them.
