The transatlantic slave trade emerged from a variety of factors. The economy of the Americas was heavily dependent on production and export of field crops. The land owners were generally unskilled in hard manual labor, especially in the climate, and remained susceptible to many diseases in the Americas. African slaves were a cheap and hardy labor force. The European countries supplying the populace to the New World needed to ensure economic success for future expansion.
