Did Europe gain slaves in the Triangle Trade?
Yes and no, slavery never caught on in Britain and a few other European countries. European traders sold European goods to the other country ( most cases a country on the west side of Africa ) in return for Slaves which would be sold to another country who in turn provide things like sugar, tea and other luxurious items as payment, this rather unfair and mostly cruel trade contributed to the finally agreement of the abolition of slavery in 1807 and the final bill of slavery being made illegal in 1833.
