Between 1750 and 1900, cotton was primarily shipped to Europe, especially to Britain, where the Industrial Revolution fueled a high demand for cotton textiles. Significant quantities were also exported to France, Germany, and other European countries. Additionally, cotton was shipped to various regions in the Americas and parts of Asia, including India and China, as global trade networks expanded during this period. The United States became a major supplier, particularly following the invention of the cotton gin in the late 18th century.
