Answer 1

The slave voyage to the Americas, was referred to as "The Middle Passage". This is due to the fact that in the triangle of trade that had been established with European Nations and the Americas, the slave route was in the middle. Starting in Europe, sailors would arrive in Africa, collect slaves to be delivered to the New World. The sailors would drop off the slaves and pick up raw goods from the colonies and then bring them back to Europe, starting the cycle again.
