Regarding the continuation of American participation in the Atlantic Slave Trade, slave owning delegates to the Constitution held that the trade should continue as otherwise it would endanger the coming of states.
Atlantic Slave Trade started in the 15th century and continued till the 19th. Europeans ,especially Americans were organizing the trade and picking up Africans as slaves and shipping them to the new world in a Slave ship. As the trade was in the region of Atlantic Ocean, it is named as the Atlantic Slave Trade.
Of the 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention, about 25 owned slaves. The ones who were opposing slavery realized that going against and pressing the matter would weaken the integrity of state, and make it impossible to come together. They worked on a compromise with the Southern states that in return of no tax on exports, there would be no ban on slave trade until 1808.
