Answer:
The name for 18th century trade between West Africa, the West Indies, North America, and Europe is Triangular Trade.
Explanation:
The triangular trade was the trade between Europe, America and Africa. Ships departed from Western Europe with firearms, gunpowder, iron and textiles as merchandise. It was exchanged in West Africa with the local rulers and African and Arab slave traders for slaves, gold and ivory.
Ships with slaves departed from West Africa via the Middle Passage to North America and the Caribbean. The conditions of the slaves were terrible during the journey and many died. The slaves were sold in America as plantation workers. The ships departed from North America and the Caribbean to Western Europe with luxury goods such as sugar, rum, coffee, cotton, silver and tobacco.
