Okay. Use this one instead

Carib. and NA were major contributors in the T.A. slave trade during the 14th-15th century.
Slaves were not only taken from their homeland - they were also stripped of their natural rights and forced to work in plantations under abusive masters. Although the way blahblahblah is different because *gives examples*, they are similar in the fact that they mistreat their slaves and *-blahblahblah

Slavery has always been a common issue world wide. Throughout history, many trades were made that involved slaves - most of which involved kidnapping and smuggling these slaves from their homeland, Africa. Thes Africans was often mistreated by their owners and forced to work long hours with no pay and minimal food. The caribbean and North America are examples of places where slavery took place.

Only a fraction of the enslaved Africans brought to the New World ended up in British North America—perhaps 5%. The vast majority of slaves shipped across the Atlantic were sent to the Caribbean sugar colonies, Brazil, or Spanish America. Throughout the Americas, but especially in the Caribbean, tropical disease took a large toll on their population and required large numbers of replacements. Many Africans had a limited natural immunity to yellow fever and malaria, but malnutrition, poor housing and inadequate clothing allowances, and overwork contributed to a high mortality rate.

"During the three centuries prior to 1850, as many as 14 million slaves have been introduced into Latin America, compared with about 500,000 brought into the United States/North America".

In Latin America, most of the slaves were taken to the Caribbean, where they worked on sugar plantations.
