It was a major center where the slaves from Africa would go in order to come to America.
I am no history major, but from what i understand slaves were not generally bought. they were captured. there were some tribes that would sell their slaves they had captured from other tribes, but usually by the slaves were caught by the slave hunters. who would transport them to their markets. the golden triangle as it was called back in the gunboat deplomacy days was when a trader would sell opium in china, go to Africa and capture slaves and then after selling the slaves in America buy molassess and head back to England.
It increased, drastically.Between 1500 and 1800, 12 million African slaves were taken by the Spanish and Portuguese and transported across the Atlantic Ocean.Approximately 2 million of those died in transit.Less than 10% arrived in the American Colonies.The major portion of the African Slaves were sold in South America and the Caribbean Islands, with the largest portion of those slaves being sold in Brazil.
African slaves helped grow crops such as sugar, tobacco, cotton, rice, and indigo on plantations in the Americas. These crops were labor-intensive and required a large workforce, leading to the use of slaves for cultivation.
Spanish and Portuguese are the two major languages in South America.
Portuguese is considered a major language in countries that have given it the status of official language. It's the official language of Portugal. It's also the official language of the former Portuguese colonies of Angola, Cape Verde Islands, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, and Sao Tome and Principe, in Africa. And it's also the official language of the former Portuguese colony of Brazil, in Latin America; and of East Timor, and Macau, in Asia.
