In 1800 the seas were crossed not only by the ships of Corsairs and Pirates, but also and above all by slave ships, those that were transporting black slaves from Africa to the Americas.

Enormous economic advantages accrued to European countries that possessed powerful naval fleets and had created sugar, cocoa and coffee plantations. in new territories.

Obviously the slave trade was born from the need to have cheap labor for crops and was fueled through the collaboration of the rulers of the African states themselves who profited from the trade itself.
