Why did the European countries start to deport Africans?

European countries began to deport Africans primarily due to Immigration policies aimed at controlling the influx of people from African nations. Factors contributing to this trend included economic concerns, social tensions, and security issues. Additionally, some governments sought to respond to domestic political pressures and rising anti-immigrant sentiments, leading to stricter enforcement of immigration laws and the deportation of undocumented migrants. These actions often disregarded the complex socio-political contexts that drove many Africans to migrate in the first place.
