triangular trade

Examples of triangular trade in the following topics:

• The Triangular Trade

  • Triangular Trade was a system in which slaves, crops, and manufactured goods were traded between Africa, the Americas, and Europe.
  • The term triangular trade is used to characterize much of the Atlantic trading system from the 16th to early 19th centuries, in which three main commodity-types—labor, crops, and manufactured goods—were traded in three key Atlantic geographic regions.
  • This particular triangular trip took anywhere from five to 12 weeks and often resulted in massive fatalities of enslaved Africans on the Middle Passage voyage.
  • The Middle Passage was the stage of the triangular trade where millions of enslaved people from Africa were shipped to the New World for sale.
  • The triangular trade was a system in which slaves were transported to the Americas; sugar, tobacco, and cotton were exported to Europe; and textiles, rum, and manufactured goods were sent to Africa.

• The Middle Passage

  • The Middle Passage was the stage of the triangular trade where millions of enslaved people from Africa were shipped to the New World.
  • The Middle Passage was the stage of the triangular trade in which millions of enslaved people from Africa were shipped to the New World for sale .
  • These Africans were transported across the Atlantic as slaves and were then sold or traded for raw materials.
  • Commercial goods from Europe were shipped to Africa for sale and traded for enslaved Africans.
  • African slaves were thereafter traded for raw materials, which were returned to Europe to complete the Triangular Trade.

• Commerce in the New England Colonies

  • Within a century, New England colonies had become a key part of an Atlantic trade network.
  • The hunting of wildlife provided furs to be traded and food for the colonists' tables.
  • This system of exchange was known as the Triangular Trade .
  • Depiction of the Triangular Trade of slaves, sugar, and rum with New England instead of Europe as the third corner.
  • Depiction of the Triangular Trade of slaves, sugar, and rum with New England instead of Europe as the third corner.

• Early New England Society

  • By the end of the 17th century, New England colonists had tapped into a sprawling Atlantic trade network that connected them to the English homeland as well as the West African slave coast, the Caribbean's plantation islands, and the Iberian Peninsula.
  • The hunting of wildlife provided furs for trading and food for the colonists' tables.
  • These local goods were shipped to towns and cities all along the Atlantic Coast, and enterprising men set up stables and taverns along wagon roads to service these trade routes.
  • This system of exchange became known as the "Triangular Trade."
  • The coastal ports began to specialize in fishing, international trade, and shipbuilding and, after 1780, whaling.

• Early American Slavery

  • African slaves were both easily identified (by their skin color) and plentiful, because of the thriving slave trade.
  • The transatlantic slave trade operated from the late 16th to early 19th centuries, carrying slaves, cash crops, and manufactured goods between West Africa, Caribbean or American colonies, and the European colonial powers.
  • The route from Africa to the Americas was known as the Middle Passage as it was the middle portion of the triangular slave trade.

• Trade Leads to Gains

  • Producers and consumers trade because the exchange makes both parties better off.
  • Producers and consumers trade because the exchange makes both parties better off.
  • Consumer surplus is the area (triangular if the supply and demand curves are linear) above the equilibrium price of the good and below the demand curve.
  • The sum of consumer and producer surplus is called economic, or social, surplus, and reflects the total amount of benefit received by society when consumers and producers trade.

• Simplifying Matrices With Row Operations

  • Upper triangle form: A square matrix is called upper triangular if all the entries below the main diagonal are zero.
  • A triangular matrix is one that is either lower triangular or upper triangular.
  • A matrix that is both upper and lower triangular is a diagonal matrix.

• Ceramcis of the Veracruz

  • Culturally diverse and environmentally rich, the people of Veracruz took part in dynamic interchanges between three regions that over the centuries included trade, warfare, and migration.
  • Of particular note are the Sonrientes (Smiling) Figurines, with triangular-shaped heads and outstretched arms.

• Sculpture in the Greek Orientalizing Period

  • The close contact between cultures developed from increasing trade and even colonization.
  • Apart from the novelty of recording its own purpose, this sculpture adapts the formulae of later Orientalized sculptures, as seen in the shorter more triangular face and slightly advancing left leg.

• Sculpture of the Cyclades

  • Their geographical location placed them, like the island of Crete, in the center of trade between Greece, Egypt, Asia Minor, and the Near East.
  • The bodies are roughly triangular and the feet are kept together.
