Detailed Solution

The triangular slave trade was between America, Europe and Asia.
There was a labor scarcity on the plantations due to Europeans' hesitation to travel to and work in foreign locations. So a triangular slave trade between Europe, Africa, and the Americas was established to address this. In the seventeenth century, the slave trade started. From the ports of Bordeaux or Nantes, French traders traveled to the coast of Africa, where they procured enslaved people from regional chiefs. The enslaved people were branded and chained, and crammed together onto ships for the three-month trip to the Caribbean. They were bought by plantation owners there. The use of slave labor made it possible to supply the rising demand for sugar, coffee, and indigo in European markets.
