The Slave Trade
Intro (pas moi qui la fait)
I/ The principal of slavery
1- Where did they come from and what are theire functions?
The new world's, discovery in 1492 by Christophe Colomb, toppled over the destiny of milions peoples. The America's continent was subjected to violences physicals and morales. America was depopulated two-third of its occupants. The America's Indians were exterminated by the Europeans'colonists and more exactly by the Spanish and Portuguese colonists. The slave trade find its origins in a shortage of labour in the New World in America. The first slaves were aboriginals peiples but they were decimated and they were replaced by the African's people principaly of the Western Africa and more especially of Guinea. The slaves were sold at europeans traders in exchange of muskets, manufactured goods and cloth. The slaves were prisoners of the Africans civils wars or the poor african labour. They were sold by the africans kings at europeans. Slaves served to do the work which Europeans didn't want to carry out like working in mining of gold, in plantations. They did the hardest work which europeans didn't want to do.
2- The triangular Atlantic trade
The triangular atlantic trade represented the most important and profitable trading route in the world from the seventeenth century. It consisted in exchanging shoddy's products against black slaves; these slaves were transported to America in the Europeans coloies to be theis turn exchanged against cotton, coffee, cocoa, and all sort of raws materials not transformed. These last were sold again on the european continent after being transformed into luxury products. The exchanged slaves worked in the palntations in the West Indies or in America as one sees it on this map (je fais passer une carte). The route of the triangular atlantic trade is represented on the first map.
3- The case of Liverpool
The map show the most important ports in Europe between 1695 and 1807. Liverpool was a major slaving port and its ships and merchants dominated the transatlantic slave trade in the second half of the eighteenth century. The growth of the Liverpool's trade was slow but solid: approximately five miles three hundred ships left Liverpool's port between 1695 and 1807. In the years 1730 about fifteen (15) ships a year were leaving for Africa and this grew to about fifty (50) a year in the 1750's and reaching approximately a hundred ships in the first yaers of 1770's. But during the American War of Independance in 1775-1783, numbers declined. In the two decades preceding the abolition of the slave trade in 1807, numbers of ships reached between one hundred twenty (120) and one hundred thirty (130). The historians are still debated on the reasons for Liverpool's dominance of the trade. In all the cases, the geographical position of the Liverpoll's port was en asset very important in the hegemony of Liverpool during the slave trade. After abolition in 1807, Liverpool continued to develop trade routes and the trade in itself (but not the trade of humans) during all the nineteenth century
II/ c'est pas moi qui le fait
Conclusion:
To conclude, the slavery was a turning point un the story of humanity. The africans will be marqued for ever by this system in which they were considered like objects or animals rather humans.
