Based on the map, what effect would a higher demand for raw goods have had uponthe slave trade?

Answers

The correct answer is B. Demand for slaves in the Americas would have risen

Explanation:

The map shows slaves were taken from Africa to the Americas; additionally, the role of slaves in America was to grow crops and produce cotton, tobacco, and other similar products that were later taken to Europe as it is shown on the map.

In this context, if there was an increase in the demand for raw goods, (cotton, tobacco, etc), this would lead to an increase in demand for slaves. This is because to produce more cotton, tobacco, etc. it was necessary to increase the number of workers in plantations, and slaves were the main labor force used in the crops.

Answers

The cotton gin was a major invention that helped to make the shift to large plantations throughout the Deep South profitable. The cotton gin was an invention that used a machine to remove the seeds and other plant pieces from cotton quickly so that lots of cotton could be processed quickly for sale. Previously this process had been done by hand and had been much slower than after the invention of the cotton gin. This invention led to a growth in plantations and the development of cotton and ultimately led to an increase in the use of slave labor as well.
