Slave trade was a trade of slaves from Africa. It was between three countries, Africa ,France and America. Slaves were bought from Africa and then packed in ships for three months and later on sold to the plantation owners on the port of baundeax in France. Others were sold in America.
Explanation:
Slavery refers to a system whereby people were ill treated and forced to hard work.
The Europeans were reluctant to go and work in distant and unfamiliar lands meant a shortage of labour on the plantations. So this was met by a triangular slave trade between Europe, Africa and the Americas. The slave trade began in the seventeenth century. French merchants sailed from the ports of Bordeaux or Nantes to the African coast, where they bought slaves from local chieftains. Branded and shackled, the slaves were packed tightly into ships for the three-month long voyage across the Atlantic to the Caribbean. There they were sold to plantation owners. The exploitation of slave labour made it possible to meet the growing demand in European markets for sugar, coffee, and indigo. Port cities like Bordeaux and Nantes owed their economic prosperity to the flourishing slave trade.
I think the answer is they were competing for land and gold, but I am not 100% sure.

Explanation:
The Netherlands was the third European country to establish a global colonial empire outside of continental Europe. Its ability to trade and transport goods, coupled with the wave of nationalism and militarism that followed the independence of Spain helped the company. Along with the British, at first the Dutch accumulated colonial possessions through capitalist business colonialism, with a predominance of the Dutch East India Company. The direct intervention of the State in the colonial company came later. Dutch merchants and sailors also participated in the wave of exploration that continued during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
New Netherlands encompassed the northern area of the Atlantic coast of the United States, which was first visited by Dutch explorers and later controlled and colonized by the Dutch West Indies Company. The settlements were initially established around the Hudson River: Fort Nassau created in 1614, abandoned in 1617 by continuous flooding and restored in 1624 under the name of Fort Orange, nowadays Albany and New Amsterdam, founded in 1625 on the island of Manhattan. The colony reached its maximum size with the absorption of the Swedish settlement of Fort Christina in 1655, ending in this way with the colony of New Sweden.
The end of the New Netherlands colony came in 1674, after the end of the Anglo-Dutch Third War the Dutch settlements became part of the British Crown and New Amsterdam was renamed New York.
