The English depended on slaves for chipping away at their manors, particularly in the South. In the Triangular Trade, products were transported to Africa to be exchanged for slaves. ... The Portuguese had help catching African slaves from other African gatherings.
Historically the particular routes were also shaped by the powerful influence of winds and currents during the age of sail. For example, from the main trading nations of Western Europe, it was much easier to sail westwards after first going south of 30 N latitude and reaching the so-called "trade winds"; thus arriving in the Caribbean rather than going straight west to the North American mainland. Returning from North America, it is easiest to follow the Gulf Stream in a northeasterly direction using the westerlies. A triangle similar to this, called the volta do mar was already being used by the Portuguese, before Christopher Columbus' voyage, to sail to the Canary Islands and the Azores. Columbus simply expanded this triangle outwards, and his route became the main way for Europeans to reach, and return from, the Americas.
Atlantic triangular slave trade See also: Atlantic slave trade and Slave Coast of West Africa The best-known triangular trading system is the transatlantic slave trade that operated from Bristol, London, and Liverpool. during the late 16th to early 19th centuries, carrying slaves, cash crops, and manufactured goods between West Africa, Caribbean or American colonies and the European colonial powers, with the northern colonies of British North America, especially New England, sometimes taking over the role of Europe. The use of African slaves was fundamental to growing colonial cash crops, which were exported to Europe. European goods, in turn, were used to purchase African slaves, who were then brought on the sea lane west from Africa to the Americas, the so-called Middle Passage. Despite being driven primarily by economic needs, Europeans sometimes had a religious justification for their actions. In 1452, for instance, Pope Nicholas V, in the Dum Diversas, granted to the kings of Spain and Portugal "full and free permission to invade, search out, capture, and subjugate the Saracens [Muslims] and pagans and any other unbelievers ... and to reduce their persons into perpetual slavery."
Tools, cloth and most other goods were made by hand prior to
the Industrial Revolution. Due to
improvements in automation and assembly lines, more goods were produced at a
lower price during the Industrial Revolution.
Machines replaced hand tools and steam was used to run the machines that
made the tools. Cloth and shoes also
became machine-made. Another outcome of the Industrial Revolution was the implementation
of the factory system.
This may be a huge explanation I'm about to write due to how objective I have to be to answer this question. Communism is both a economic and social idea in which Marxism and Authoritarianism are combined. A lot of Americans were taught to hate communism because America is a capitalist world and is he leading business tycoon in the world, which means that even before any communist nations even existed, America still hated communism. Communism is an ideology that is always considered to be labour comprehensive and proceeds in the direction of labour rights, while America has no concern for labour interests. There are going to be nations I'm going to use in this example, The USSR and China (not Taiwan). These two Nations use Communism in a sort of autocratic way. Let's start off with China; China uses communism in an autocratic way that prevents you from being able to protest, and if they wanted to do some project or something they wouldn't give the slightest care if thousands of buildings and edifices were to be destroyed. Now we have the USSR; the USSR was under many autocratic regimes and one we could all agree on is Stalin's regime. Stalin in some sense wasn't really a communist, but just a straight up dictator that killed 10s of millions. There was the Ukrainian potato famine which was supposed to prove that collectivization worked, but instead it killed an estimate 20 million, we then have the great purge which killed 1.2 million, and then we have world war 2 which killed 27 million. This proved America that communism is hell and should never be trusted in America. What I'm trying to say here is that Communism takes away a lot of people's rights and killed millions in the past, and America wants to have these rights to give opportunity and freedom to everyone. I know the industrial revolution also killed millions too because of the upper class exploiting the workers, but that is a discussion for later.
