Main causes:
Importance of growth in colonies
Shortage of labor
Failure to find alternative sources of labor
The legal position
Racial attitudes
Religious factors
Military factors

Brief explanation:

Increasing numbers of slaves were transported across the Atlantic because of the new form of farming that developed in the European colonies of the New World.

European farmers attempted to use native populations as a source of labour, which proved difficult. However, tha did not stop the development of the New Word.

With new land available, labourers were always tempted to leave their job and start their own farm. Wages needed to be high enough to tempt them to stay, reducing the planters’ profit margins.

The status of slaves as property was long established. The use of the property law meant that the enslaved were not considered humans, but commodities.

Several ideas from the time supported the enslavement of Africans:

Africans were seen as more suited to work on the plantations

African captives would be executed if the slave trade was abolished

African slaves were seen as benefitting from being looked after by the superior Europeans

Some Bible passages were used to justify slavery. In Genesis Noah placed the 'curse of Ham' on the descendents of his son, starting with his grandson Canaan.

laiz [17]

It caused the delegates to vote in 1861 that Louisiana would secede.

Answer: Option D.

On January 8, 1861 the governor of Louisiana, Thomas Overton Moore organised a convention which was about the secession of Louisiana. He ordered a militia arsenal to occupy the United States arsenal.

He acted aggressively to engineer the secession of Louisiana from the union by a convention. Only five percent of the public was represented in the convention and the delegates voted 113 to 17 to secede from the union. And therefore there was secession of Louisiana.

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Yes, the statement is true in the current context.

Explanation:

Pakistan stands to support Kashmiri militants like in the case of Burhan Wani killing by Indian soldiers. The killing of Burhan Wani raged violent protests which have claimed a high death toll in the valley. Pakistan's reaction came in support of the militant leader when the Prime Minister of Pakistan, Mr. Nawaz Sharif called him a martyr, and therefore his death was used to provoke anti-Indian sentiments.

Prior to the presence of Europeans on the continent, the slave trade in Africa
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The right answer is B.

Explanation:

Before the arrival of the Europeans, African kingdoms or other political units had their own forms of slavery. People became slaves as punishment for a crime, as payment for a debt, or being captured as a prisoner of war. Those are patterns seen in other civilizations as well. Despite the existence of those forms of slavery, it can´t be compared with what was done by the European slave traders.
