The first leg of the triangular trade route?

The second leg of the triangular trade was the Middle Passage. One loads with trade goods (which means crap; beads, mirrors, cheap knives, muskets which will fire three shots and then explode) in Bristol or Liverpool, and proceeds to West Africa, where the goods are exchanged with native Kings for a section of their surplus population at a price somewhere around two dollars a head. The Middle Passage is the journey, laden with slaves, across to the West Indies, most often to Cuba, where the slaves are sold for $800 each. The holds are swabbed out and fillled with sugar and rum, which you then take back to England and sell at a profit of a mere 500 percent.
