The triangular trade was a trade route that connected the Americas, Europe, and Africa. To remember this answer, you can think of the word "triangular" which refers to three sides, just like the trade route connected three regions - the Americas, Europe, and Africa. This trade route played a significant role in the history of slavery and the development of the Atlantic economy during the 16th to 19th centuries.
