Answer:

1. The triangular trade was a system of exchange in which Europe supplied Africa and the Americas with finished goods, the Americas supplied Europe and Africa with raw materials, and Africa supplied the Americas with enslaved laborers.

2. It was a result of labor shortage and European colonists exploiting New World land and resources for capital profits.

3. In africa children with parents in slavery were free, but in America if you were the child of a slave you were born into slavery and started working by the age of 3-6 years old

4. It had a negative effect. The slave trade brought about a negative impact on African societies and led to the long-term impoverishment of West Africa. This intensified effects that were already present amongst its rulers, kinships, kingdoms and in society.
