Why is it necessary to understand the commercial interests linked with slavery?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It shows that opposition to the abolition of slavery was linked not only to social ideas but also to economic profit.

Merchants and plantation owners earned substantial profits from the slave trade and from enslaved labour on plantations. Therefore, opposition to the abolition of slavery was also aimed at protecting economic interests. Option B is wrong because slavery-related trade was highly profitable. Exam tip: Link slavery with colonial trade, plantations and economic profit.
