What was life like in Africa before the slave trade effected them?

Answer #1

Africa was actually a flourishing continent in a lot of places. Popular myth is that it was just some place that sold slaves and kept slaves. Although it did keep and sell slaves, it was a land with a lot of gold, resources, and kings and queens. The people were very advanced in technology and very skilled. The idea of Africa just being some demented land that sold its own people was made to justify the selling of slaves and the state the slave trade left Africa in.
