Bonjour,
The three important steps in the slave trade:
- First step : from Europe to Africa ( manufactured goods = firearms, gunpowder, metals, alcohol, cotton goods, knives, mirrors )
- Second step : from Africa to the New World ( slaves )
- Third step : from the New World to to Europe ( raw materials = cotton, tobacco, sugar cane, coffee )
armes à feu = firearms
poudre à canon = gunpowder
voyage = journey
sommes = amounts
( huge amounts of money = d'énormes sommes d'argent )
;)
