 * Identify the causes of African slavery.**

Slavery has been in Africa for thousands of years. However it reached to gargantuan proportions from fifteenth onwards due to colonialism. Firstly Pope approved slavery in 1452 and secondly due to colonialism, suddenly a lot of workforce was required in various kinds of plantations all over the world.


 * Explain the Triangular Trade Route.**

The dreaded Triangular slave trade starts with sugar cane being shipped off to Europe. From Europe, the beaded jewellery, cloth and other manufactured goods were shipped to Africa. These items were exchanged on the Western coasts for slaves. Slaves were then roughly taken by the ships for the journey to the Caribbean.


 * Identify the consequences of the slave trade.**

The horrible consequences of slave trade were economical and racial divide. The slave trade created a rift between white a black, which is still there. Besides that it boosted the economy of the western world and destroyed Africa economically.

The 15th and 16th century were a time of exploration and discovery for European nations. Taking advantage of new maritime knowledge and inventions, European powers undertook sea expeditions to expand their trade and influence. Rewards what European might have gotten from exploring the seas for new lands, are that pride and the status of finding new land and spreading Christianity and profiting Europeans want to explore distant lands. In addition, by exploring the seas for new lands, Europeans achieved their goals, which were expanding Christian religion, in crease patriotism and popularity, and find new sources of wealth. Embarking on a voyage requires a lot of background information of a destination Embarking on a voyage into the unknown involved many problems. Firstly inhospitable sea may have brought diseases, secondly the hostile people of unknown destinations and thirdly the pirates. There was fear of death in all the three experiences. The ships used to sink, hostile people used to kill and lastly pirates first used to rob and then kill. Every sailor had to undergo the life and death situation in voyages. Many perished, but for a handful of them who survived go accolades. As a 15th century sailor, I would have selected physically sound, able bodied men who could fight well if the situation occurred. While running into hostile natives, I would have first taken shelter against any impending rock or arrow. Then I would have consolidated my men and attacked them. I would have taken care that my attack would be focused more on scaring than killing, which we would have done easily by firing our guns in the air. This way, we would have put our point without unnecessary bloodshed.

I would certainly select compass as this is most useful item in a sea voyage. It is made of a magnet encased in a small box, which is suspended with a pin so that it moves freely. The magnet always directs to the earth’s magnetic north and south. In deep sea and especially in the night where the sun is also not there to guide us; only the compass tells us the correct directions for moving ahead.
