After the fifteenth century the african slave trade increased. which best describes a cause

History

True [87]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

After the fifteenth century the slave trade increased due to the imperial expansion of Europe. Between the 16th and 19th centuries, approximately twelve million enslaved African people were sent to America as forced labor.

A determining situation for this increase was the development of sugarcane plantations. European colonizers enslaved many people to work in those crops. The cultivation of sugarcane required that a large number of people devote themselves to this intense, continuous and arduous activity, especially during the harvest. In this way, the growing demand for sugar production favored forced labor.

On the other hand, the diseases introduced by the Europeans in the territories they colonized, caused the native population to decrease. This fact prevented the colonizers from finding the amount of native labor they wanted. For this reason, they sought in Africa this work force.

How did FDR use his words to encourage public support for U.S. involvement in WWII?""
zysi [14]

Answer:

FDR looked at the war from the American lenses and the world lenses.

Explanation:

FDR was sympathetic towards the Great Britain and France, however, he could not keep on maintaining America's isolationist policy. Thus, FDR came to a point where he could not ask the Americans to become neutral at all. He therefore, did his best to support the two countries, particular Britain by promising an "short of war."

First, he silenced the isolationist stance and voices. Second, he encouraged people to support the war, citing that it would test America's preparedness for a future aggression. Lastly, he claimed that the war will check the Japanese who had bombed the Pearl Habour. This will keep invasion in check and destroy any potential threats.

Why did spain support columbus voyages of exporation
Alchen [17]
The main reason why Spain decided to support Columbus' voyages of exploration was because he promised that he would bring gold and spices back from the New World. Another reason was that the Spanish Crown was interested in spreading Christianity.
