Identify and explain one effect on the transatlantic slave trade ?(answer -explain -cite format)

The slave trade had devastating effects in Africa. Economic incentives for warlords and tribes to engage in the slave trade promoted an atmosphere of lawlessness and violence. Depopulation and a continuing fear of captivity made economic and agricultural development almost impossible.

European slavers usually left behind or killed persons who were elderly, disabled, or sick since they were too weak to provide for themselves or be in any workforce. In the end, the slave trade left the continent underdeveloped, disorganized, and vulnerable to the next phase of European hegemony colonialism.

        i'm fairly sure that the correct answers are 2 and 3.

        i used both my knowledge of world history and the process of elimination to obtain these answers. option 1 cannot be a possible selection because the mandate of heaven belongs to ancient chinese philosophical belief. option 4 sounds like it would benefit the region than detriment it. however, both 2 and 3 explain a potential reason for what could have contributed to the fall of the roman empire.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
