Why was disease the leading cause of death of the enslaved africans on the middle passage

History
1 answer:
borishaifa [10]3 years ago
5 0
Since Slaves we're crammed into ships, they often died of disease, as diseases spread much more effectively when people are constantly in contact with each other, as they often were because so many slaves were fit onto each ship. Think about it: You're more likely to catch a cold if you get coughed on no matter what you do , because you are always close to the sick person.

Collectivization is a communist system in which public government farms are broken
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The collectivization is a process through which there's forced consolidation of the individual peasant households into collective farms. Basically, this was a process in which the people that were more capable, hard working, managed to prosper in life and have larger pieces of land, were forced to give their land to the others and all together to work on it and own it in a way, with everyone having an equal share. This was going to the advantage of the people that were lazier, were not very smart, and din't really had any chance of prospering in normal circumstances. This process led to destroying the capable people in the communist countries, which led to major economic problems, especially when it came to the agriculture, so very often there was lack of food.
