History
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]3 years ago
5 0
General Robert E. Lee, the Confederate commander of the Army of Northern Virginia, invaded Union territory in an attempt to persuade the United States into a negotiated peace after a hoped-for decisive and damaging attack on Northern soil. It was also believed that a notable Southern victory in Union territory might have resulted in financial support and recognition of the Confederate cause from England or France. General Lee's first invasion of the North, which took place in Maryland during September of 1862, was repulsed by Union forces at the Battle of Antietam, but it was followed by a second invasion by Lee into Pennsylvania during the months of June and July in 1863.

In the Triangular slave trade, which length was known as the Middle Passage?
KIM [24]

The correct answer is D. The transport of slaves across the Atlantic to the Americas

Explanation:

The Triangular slave trade was a complex trade route that involved Africa, the Americas, and Europe. Additionally, in this there were three main sections, the first was the Middle Passage that connected Africa to America through the Atlantic Ocean; this was used mainly to transport slaves from Africa that were used in plantations in the colonies in America. The second section of the trade connected America and Europe, and through this, products from crops and others such as furs were taken to Europe. Finally, the last section connected Europe and Africa, this was used by colonizers to take manufacture goods to Africa and buy slaves with these. Thus, the Middle Passage was "the transport of slaves across the Atlantic to the Americas."
