Slave Trade Triangle Map

In social  studies we made a map on google maps about all the main places slaves were traded and bartered for. The map is of the Slave Trade Triangle which is the triangle where slaves were traded and purchased. The first passage was from Europe to Africa and the cargo on board was guns and weapons. The middle passage was where the Africans were taken to the Caribbean and sold. They were bartered for a ship load of tobacco and cotton. Finally The Third Passage was from America to Europe, All the cotton, tobacco and other products are put back onto the ships and sent back to Europe. Once the ships get back to Europe, they are sold and then more guns and weapons are purchased.
