What did europeans trade in the fur trade?

In the fur trade, Europeans primarily traded manufactured goods such as firearms, metal tools, textiles, and alcohol in exchange for animal furs, particularly beaver pelts. These furs were highly sought after in Europe for making hats and clothing, driving demand. Indigenous peoples often engaged in these exchanges, leveraging their hunting skills and knowledge of the land. This trade significantly impacted both European economies and Indigenous societies, leading to complex relationships and sometimes conflict.
