According to the key on this map, which region was the first destination for many enslaved Africans?

Question

Key:
Orange = West Africa
Purple = Engish Colonies In North America
Green = West Indies
Arrow = Trade routes

Answer 1

Based on the key you provided and considering historical context, if there are arrows pointing from the orange region (West Africa) to the green region (West Indies), it would indicate trade routes from West Africa to the West Indies. Historically, this was indeed one of the first destinations for many enslaved Africans during the transatlantic slave trade, so the correct answer would be the green region or the West Indies. The West Indies served as a major hub for the slave trade and many enslaved Africans were brought there for labor on sugar plantations before being sent to other destinations, including the English colonies in North America.
