Why is the Atlantic slave trade studied in connection with capital accumulation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Forced labour increased plantation production and European profits

The direct answer is A: forced labour increased plantation production and European profits. Enslaved Africans were transported across the Atlantic and compelled to work in plantations producing sugar, tobacco, cotton, and other commodities. Their unpaid or violently controlled labour reduced production costs and enriched plantation owners, merchants, and connected European economies. A is correct. B is wrong because slavery denied freedom. C is wrong because the trade was deeply connected with markets, credit, shipping, and profit. D is wrong because the Atlantic trade was not only Asian. Memory cue: forced labour + plantations + trade profits = capital accumulation.
