The correct statement that compares how American and African economies were impacted by trade with Europeans is: "American and African economies suffered as people were enslaved and their resources were extracted."
To arrive at this answer, we need to explore the history of trade between Europeans, Americans, and Africans. European colonization had a profound impact on the economies of both the Americas and Africa.
During the era of Atlantic slave trade, millions of Africans were forcibly taken from their homes and sold as slaves to work primarily on plantations in the Americas. This horrific practice not only caused immense suffering to African people but also led to the decimation of local African labor forces, which disrupted their economies and societies.
Additionally, Europeans exploited the natural resources of both the Americas and Africa during colonization. In the Americas, resources like gold, silver, timber, and agricultural products were extracted and transported back to Europe. In Africa, resources like ivory, rubber, and valuable minerals were similarly exploited and taken away by Europeans.
This extraction of resources, coupled with the brutal system of slavery, left both the American and African economies devastated as their people suffered and their resources were drained.
Therefore, the correct statement is: "American and African economies suffered as people were enslaved and their resources were extracted."
