Why did the Western colonizers use black slaves

The colonists of the Americas did not choose Indians as slaves for two main reasons. The main reason is actually because these colonists in the Americas thought that there was a better choice, and blacks were obviously more suitable to be slaves. Because blacks were physically better than Indians, these colonists chose blacks.

The first reason was that the Indians themselves did not want to submit to the discipline of these European colonizers. You must know that in that tribal era, it can be said that those African tribes who did not have much agility and civilization at all had no way to compare with the Indians, because after all, the Indians had created a more glorious history in history and had a relatively strong culture. The Indians themselves don't want it, these European colonizers rule, and they are very proud in their hearts.

In addition, when the Indians saw the arrival of European colonization, their first reaction was not fear but contempt. The Indians hated the burning and looting of their land by the European colonists, and the Indians also wanted to rebel against the European colonists many times, and if the European colonists made the Indians an effort, it was likely to increase the cost of management. But this is not the case for blacks.

Because these blacks don't have much of a sense of identity with each other, the hatred between tribes is not as big as these Indians. <>

The second reason is that blacks have a better constitution than Indians. These European colonizers, of course, wanted their slavery system to have the least amount of good food, but to do the most work to save them money. The quality of the Indians was far less than that of the blacks, and although the Indians were the natives of the land at that time, the Indians were not as physically strong as the blacks.

If the European colonizers had treated the Indians as slaves, it would have been oppressed for a large number of Indians to die in a short time. And this is more troublesome for the colonists in the Americas, and it is not what these colonists want to see, because after all, they have to spend more energy to select slaves.

We all know that there is a particularly feared ** in the history of the West, that is, the triangle**, during this period, many Africans were brought into the New World, so why do Western countries need these black people? Let's discuss it today.

First, the manor economy in the West gradually developed. We all know that after the New World was opened, many British people moved to the New World in the United States, so they opened up a lot of estates, they needed to grow a lot of crops, they needed a lot of people to help them grow crops. We all know that blacks are a very good race, they are very athletic and capable.

The African continent is also a very poor place, and blacks are also easy to be deceived, so many black-hearted businessmen will go to the African continent to buy some blacks to help them plant their estates, and many manor owners will be very cruel after using blacks, and they will often beat these people, so we think that many people's image in this ** is very negative. Therefore, the first reason why Western countries need blacks is the development of the manor economy.

Second, the neglect of human rights. We all know that Western slave owners are very ignorant of human rights, they can make a lot of efforts for their property, but they don't care about the lives of black people at all, they transported some black people from the African continent to the New World through bloody **, they caused a lot of black ** to leave their homes through some illegal means, and they also became enslaved by others, so black people are very sad. But many black-hearted people don't care about the health of these people at all, they also experience a lot of disasters in the process of transporting blacks, they will hurt the lives of these blacks, so many blacks are sold to the New World, and they also become slaves of the manor owners, working hard all day long.

Therefore, the second reason why Western countries buy blacks is the neglect of human rights.

The first reason was that the seafaring technology of the time was very backward, and it was cheaper to transport blacks to the Americas and the European continent than to transport Asians; The second reason is that the climate in Asia is different from that in Europe and the United States, so many Asians are unable to adapt to the living conditions there. Blacks are different because they have been growing up in Africa with a harsh environment. The third reason is that Africans are easier to control than Asians.

Those who could not stand the life of slavery stood up to resist, but it was rare to see black slaves who rebelled against their employers.

Because historically, black slaves were cheap and could save on production costs.

Navigation technology at that time was very backward. If blacks were shipped to the Americas and continental Europe, the cost would be lower than that of Asians. You know, if those traffickers buy black people, they can go straight across the Atlantic to South America.

Sending slaves to South America is equivalent to Tang monks learning scriptures, and the cost is too high.

1. Because of Africa at that time, most regions did not establish decent state power, only tribes. inability to protect people; Europeans can capture blacks to the Americas with impunity.

2. China has always been a unified country, even at the end of the Manchu Dynasty, it was not a wild land like Africa, and the country was under effective control. It was impossible to allow slave traders to capture slaves in large numbers, as they did in Africa.

3. But not completely absent. Coastal China, especially Guangdong, Fujian. Because there are many mountains and few plains.

The area of arable land is small, and there is a large surplus of labor. Many people volunteered, or were lured to the United States, Brazil, Nanyang and other places to work as laborers, or even slave laborers, and were called "piglets".

4. Compared with the black slaves who had no personal freedom at all, they still had a certain amount of personal freedom. Some people after hard work, career success, return to their hometown, return to their hometown to build a mansion with the characteristics of the times, the world cultural heritage of "Kaiping Diaolou", is one of the representatives.

Yes, many of them were sold to the United States in the late Qing Dynasty to step on gold mines.

Because of the high profits and survival rate of black slaves, their resistance to diseases was high, and the most important thing was that the spirit of resistance was so low that there was basically none. In fact, it was not only the black slave trade, in the earliest population**, white people were usually one of the main goods they traded, but at that time, white people** only existed in the interior of the European continent. Later, new shipping routes were opened, and the population** was mainly black.

But in the fifteenth century, there were also Caucasians, and in the seventeenth century, even yellows, so that there were actually all kinds of people on the American continent, and the population was mixed. Why do human traffickers prefer the slave trade to blacks and slaves over whites and yellows? First, because the slave trade was extremely profitable.

The African continent was relatively late to civilization, and they were still in the form of tribes during the Great Voyage, and there was also human trade between tribes. When Europeans arrived on the African continent, whether they were capturing blacks as slaves or trading slaves with tribal leaders, it was easier and cheaper than coming to the Ming Dynasty and European countries, which were powerful at that time.

Second, blacks are highly resistant to disease. We all know that most of the people who first went to the Americas to cultivate land died of various diseases native to the Americas. Europeans and Asians were not resistant to the diseases of the Americas, only the indigenous and African peoples.

Because Africa itself is rampant with all kinds of strange diseases, Africans have long had the ability to resist strange diseases.

The third is the low sense of resistance of black people. Blacks are different from Chinese and Caucasian people in that they have little sense of solidarity against their bosses, and they do whatever the boss tells them to do. Unlike the white race, the Chinese have too strong a sense of resistance, and we can see how strong the resistance consciousness of the white and yellow races is by looking at the various wars waged in Europe and Asia since the civilization and enlightenment.

To sum up, black slaves were the most popular and therefore the most sold.

Because in the West, there was a distinction between whites and blacks, and the whites belonged to the nobility and the blacks belonged to the lower people, so they only sold blacks and sold them to make money.

Because the people who were closer to them at that time were blacks, and the blacks couldn't beat them, they were trafficked.

The reason why the West only sold black slaves in modern times, and did not sell other races, was because black slaves were physically stronger than other species and were not easy to die.

The West is divided into races, and whites belong to a noble race and have human rights, and only those who do not have human rights will be sold as slaves.

Because at that time, black people were working hard, their ability was insufficient, and they were easily bullied by others.

It's just that the geography in which black people live is not good, and they lack ability, and it is easy to be bullied, as was the case a long time ago.

Haven't you seen the movie "Sea Prisoner"? It's about the criminal deeds of Western robbers selling Chinese laborers! and Jin Shanbo is actually a Chinese who was sold piglets to Jinshan.

You just need to cross the Atlantic. Unlike Asia, it is not only very far away from Europe, but also a whole Pacific Ocean away from the Americas.

In modern times, the phenomenon of trafficking in Chinese laborers has also arisen in the southeast coast, and our nation is also one of the victims.

Other races are also trafficked, but they are nothing more than coolies.

Rush candle! Selling piglets, Southeast Asia, India have!

Haven't you ever sold it??

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, how many people in the coastal generation of Guangdong were sold to North America and Europe as "piglets"?

The original black slaves were sold by the blacks themselves, the primitive tribes of Africa fought, the defeated tribes became slaves, the women left the men to kill, and after the colonists discovered the African continent, they exchanged goods for slaves from those powerful tribes, and then shipped them to their own countries to sell!

Why are blacks the strongest, but not able to fight, and are still reduced to slavery? The reason is simple!

I've heard of "Triangle **", it's a post-black portrait commodity, sold by whites and used as slaves.

This system of the slave trade developed under such circumstances:

A group of Muslims fled from Spain and fled to the African coast across the Channel.

At that time, this area of the coast was occupied by the Portuguese, so the Portuguese desperately pursued these Islamic inhabitants. A small number of these Islamic refugees were captured by the Portuguese and brought to Portugal.

These people became slaves, and this is the first black African slaves that appeared in Western Europe at the beginning of the Common Era. However, most of these Muslims are members of wealthy families, and their families are willing to redeem them.

But no matter how much the ransom was paid, the Portuguese refused to free the slaves, and it was useless for them to ask for money from foreigners, because what they lacked was the manpower that was so much needed for the labor of the newly created colony, in other words, the labor of the slaves. As for capturing more blacks, that's an easy thing to do.

The Portuguese felt that such an exchange would be beneficial to them, so they agreed, and from then on there was a slave trade in Europe.

Reason: In order to establish overseas colonies, manpower was always very necessary.

"Black goods" are not worth much in Africa, where they are produced, but they are very profitable.

The main reason is again: profit, the colonizers started the evil black ** for profit.

Because the American continent needed cheap labor, the colonists had huge profits.

The profit is 100%-1000%, above, First of all, the Western colonizers went to Africa to exchange slaves, and then transported the slaves to the Americas to sell, and then shipped the American native products back to Europe, called the triangle, with a profit of 100%-!000%, a small fishing port in the UK has become a big port because of the triangle **,

After the Western colonizers arrived in Africa, their strength was actually not very strong, but they had advanced ** and other means of production and subsistence, and took the initiative to provoke ethnic conflicts, and then exchanged or deceived or bought slaves from the winning side, and sometimes they also kidnapped and captured young black men themselves.

The world is crowded, all for profit!

Because blacks are more backward.

In 1441, blacks were sold to southern Europe, the Arab world, Persia, and South Asia through the Saharan trade routes, the Nile, and the Indian Ocean.

In that era, because productivity was too low, the slave trade was a common phenomenon and not peculiar to blacks, and there were also whites who were sold to blacks as slaves. According to statistics, the black tribe "slave hunting war" In the process of 400 years of enslavement, tens of millions of black Africans were killed; In the first half of the eighteenth century, the island of Santo Domingo imported 2.8 million slaves, but by 1976 there were only about 65,000 left, an average of more than 40,000 deaths per year; According to the calculation method that at least 10 or so black Africans were sacrificed for every slave transported to the Americas, slaves** cost Africa up to 100 million people, which is equivalent to the total population of Africa in 1980; Liverpool ships engaged in 900 slave trades, selling slaves for £15 million and making a net profit of £12 million. With a lot of blood and bones, who knows how many bones of black slaves were buried in the abyss of the rough Atlantic.
