What did the three continents trade in the Atlantic slave trade?

In the Atlantic slave trade, Europe, Africa, and the Americas were engaged in a triangular trade system. European traders transported manufactured goods, such as textiles, rum, and firearms, to Africa in exchange for enslaved people. Enslaved Africans were then shipped to the Americas, where they were forced to work on plantations producing cash crops like sugar, tobacco, and cotton. The profits from these plantations were then used to purchase more goods in Europe, perpetuating the cycle of trade.
