Its aim was to provide black slaves to colonies of the New World (America), to supply Europe with products from these settlements and to sell in Africa,European and American products. This was, for the European ships, to bring to the Atlantic coasts of Africa different goods of European origin, objects of little value, guns, weapons... highly appreciated by Africans. Goods were exchanged for black African prisoners, who were then forced to go to Americas. Here men, women, children... were sold as slaves to work in the cotton or sugar cane fields.The ships then returned to Europe with American coffee, sugar, cotton, rum which were resold. This trade lasted from the XVIe century until the early XIXe century. They say it was triangular because, on a map, it was represented by arrows connecting Europe, Africa and America which draw a triangle.
