Why was the Trans-Atlantic slave trade important 

History
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]3 years ago

T. It was because, if we look solely at it's impact on today's world, it brought large numbers of black Africans to the Americas where they know number in the millions. So, instead of their being a relatively tiny number of black African descended people in this hemisphere - probably would be even less than the number of Arabs in this hemisphere otherwise - there are millions. In the long run, a huge win for the modern black in the Americas. ESPECIALLY the modern black in the US. Had their ancestors not been enslaved and brought here, they would be living in west Africa - a terrible place by any measure. Or, they would not exist as people because, having been brought here, they were able to expand their numbers IMMENSELY across these 2 continents, something west Africa would simply not have afforded them the luxury of doing. Not enough space or resources there. No one wants to hear it, but because of the awful things that happened to their ancestors, they are infinitely better off. As EVERY people suffered slavery, black Americans (I mean those in the USA here) benefitted the most, by far, of other previously

Identify two outcomes of the political and religious conflict in the 17th century England
Akimi4 [234]

17th century England was troubled by the same kinds of problems as the rest of Europe--political , economic, and social tension made worse by religious division.  The English parliament, which should have been an instrument for peaceful change, often only made things worse.  Even competent rulers and officials had trouble governing the country.  But surprisingly enough, by the end of the 17th century, the English had found a lasting solution to the problems that confronted them.

What has been the most significant effect of artistic development in New Mexico since world war 2? give two reasons to justify y
Rainbow [258]
History: The Great Depression and World War II<span><span>One of the hardest hit segments of the New Mexico economy during the depression was farming. In 1931, the state’s most important crops were worth only about half of their 1929 value. Dry farmers were especially devastated as they suffered from both continually high operating costs and a prolonged drought that dried up portions of New Mexico so badly that they became part of the Dust Bowl. From Oklahoma to eastern New Mexico, winds picked up the dry topsoil, forming great clouds of dust so thick that it filled the air. On May 28, 1937, one dust cloud, or “black roller,” measuring fifteen hundred feet high and a mile across, descended upon the farming and ranching community of Clayton, New Mexico. The dust blew for hours and was so thick that electric lights could not be seen across the street. Everywhere they hit, the dust storms killed livestock and destroyed crops. In the Estancia Valley entire crops of pinto beans were killed, and that once productive area was transformed into what author John L. Sinclair has called “the valley of broken hearts.”

In all parts of New Mexico, farmland dropped in value until it bottomed out at an average of $4.95 an acre, the lowest value per acre of land in the United States. Many New Mexico farmers had few or no crops to sell and eventually, they were forced to sell their land contributing in the process to the overall decline in farmland values.</span>The depression also hurt New Mexico’s cattle ranchers, for they suffered from both drought and a shrinking marketplace. As grasslands dried up, they raised fewer cattle; and as the demand for beef declined, so did the value of the cattle on New Mexico’s rangelands. Like the farmers, many ranchers fell behind in their taxes and were forced to sell their land, which was bought by large ranchers.<span>Agriculture’s ailing economic condition had a particularly harsh effect on New Mexico, for the state was still primarily rural during the 1930’s, with most of its people employed in raising crops and livestock. Yet farmers and ranchers were not the only ones to appear on the list of those devastated by depressed economic conditions. Indeed, high on the list were the miners, who watched their industry continue the downward slide that had begun in the 1920’s. </span></span>

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The Silk Road of ancient China is an example of cultural diffusion <em><u>occurring at a result of a trade.</u></em> Although the route began in about 138 B.C. as a means for China to export silk fabric -- a rare and valuable commodity -- trade along the Silk Road greatly promoted the exchange of products, ideas and practices between Oriental and Western civilizations.
