Slaves were captured from various regions in Africa, including West Africa (such as present-day Senegal, Gambia, Ghana, Nigeria, and Benin), Central Africa (such as present-day Angola and Congo), and East Africa (such as present-day Mozambique and Madagascar), among others. These regions were major sources of enslaved people during the transatlantic slave trade.
