The document discusses how sugar led to the system of slavery in America. Sugar cane was first domesticated in New Guinea around 9000 BC and spread to China and Egypt, where it was used ceremonially and medicinally. With the spread of Islam, sugar reached more regions. Plantations using slave labor were developed to meet the growing demand for sugar in Europe, as sugar cane required large-scale, rapid processing. The triangular slave trade system emerged, with slaves transported from Africa to the Americas to work on sugar cane plantations, and plantation goods exported to Europe to complete the cycle.

The Slave Trade
The document discusses the history of the slave trade between Europe and Africa from the 15th to 18th centuries. It notes that the slave trade began with the Portuguese joining an existing trade in central and west Africa, supplying slaves as punishment for crimes or prisoners of war. The growth of the sugar industry in the Americas transformed and greatly increased the African slave trade, with African kings fighting wars to supply slaves, known as "Black gold", to meet European demand. Over four centuries it is estimated that around 12 million slaves were taken from Africa to the colonies.
Slave trade powerpoint
The document describes three economic zones in the Atlantic system: settler colonies, plantations, and Spanish mainland and mixed farming. It focuses on plantations in the Caribbean, which grew cash crops like sugar using slave labor from Africa under brutal conditions.

Big History
Big History looks at history across all time scales from the evolution of life to the modern era. Coffee origins are connected to major historical events like the slave trade and sugar plantations. Geneticist Spencer Wells traced human origins to Africa by studying blood and DNA from different populations around the world. A massive volcanic eruption in 535 AD caused global climate change that may have enabled the spread of the bubonic plague in the 540s. Technological and agricultural advantages like horses, steel, and plows helped Europeans conquer civilizations like the Incas and Aztecs in the Americas. Christopher Columbus' arrival in the Americas in 1492 had unintended consequences, including the destruction of indigenous populations and the introduction of new crops and
Chocolatologyhistory
The cocoa tree originated in Central America around 1500-400 BC and was first cultivated by the Olmecs. In 600 AD, the Mayans discovered that grinding cocoa seeds and mixing with water produced a treat they called "cacahuati." By 1000-1200 AD, the Aztecs were using cocoa beans as currency and drinking a ritual beverage made from beans, spices, and water called "xocolatl." In 1519, Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortez recognized the potential of cocoa beans and established cocoa plantations in Mexico. The Spanish introduced chocolate to Europe in the 1500s, removing spices and adding cane sugar, making it a hot beverage reserved for nobility. Chocolate production expanded in Europe over

Sugarcane was first domesticated in New Guinea around 8000 BC and spread to Southeast Asia, China, and India by 2000 BC. Early evidence of sugar production and beekeeping for honey appears in ancient Egypt around 2500 BC. Sugarcane cultivation spread from India to China by 500 BC and the Mediterranean by 300 BC via Alexander the Great's conquests. Major developments in sugar production occurred under the Gupta dynasty in India in 350 AD with crystallization, and under Arab rule starting in the 7th century as they spread cultivation throughout the Mediterranean and introduced sugar cane to Europe. Sugar production expanded globally through the 15th-18th centuries as European colonial powers established sugar cane plantations in the Americas, Asia, and
Period 1: 1491-1607
Before the arrival of Europeans, native populations in North America developed diverse social, political, and economic structures based on their environments and interactions. The three major civilizations were the Mayans, Aztecs, and Incas, who practiced advanced agriculture, built large cities, and developed complex societies. European expansion starting in the 15th century resulted in the Columbian Exchange and drastic population changes on both sides of the Atlantic. The Spanish established large empires in Central and South America but oppressed native populations, while other European powers like England began exploring North America in search of resources and new markets. Contact between Europeans, Africans, and Americans challenged the worldviews of all groups.
The History of Chocolate
The history of chocolate spans over 2,000 years, beginning with the Mayans and Aztecs using the cacao bean in rituals and to create spicy, bitter drinks. Chocolate spread throughout Europe in the 16th-17th centuries after being introduced by the Spanish and Dutch. Industrialization in the 19th century led to innovations like solid chocolate, milk chocolate, and mass production, making chocolate affordable for the general public. Today, chocolate is a global industry produced on five continents, with nearly 2/3 of cocoa from western Africa and 45% of revenue from Europe.

Tragedy of sugar
- 1. The Bitterness of Sugar How sweetness led to slavery
- 2. Do you know? There’s something you eat every day, that is the reason the system of slavery existed in America. Can you name what it is?
- 3. From Magic to Spice Traced back to New Guinea as early as 9000 BC Sugar Cane first appeared in China in 200AD and spread across to Egypt
- 4. From Magic to Spice Used as an offering in religious and magical ceremonies First written record of sugar Used to burn in fire to communicate with gods When placed in fire, priests noticed it would crystalize and harden
- 5. From Magic to Spice In 600s, doctors at Jundi Shapur (prestigious university) writing about medicine from India named sharkara – sugar Jundi Shapur pulled in people from all over the world – the word about sugar spread Soon those cooking for the wealthiest started using it as a spice
- 6. The Spread of Sugar With the spread of Islam, sugar reached greater even more people and lands Eventually made its way to Europe Could not produce their own spices A series of wars and fairs brought in new spices – sugar among them Muslims raised the sugar, sold to Italians who took it further into Europe
- 7. The Travels of Sugar
- 8. The Problem with Sugar Cane Two problems growing large amounts of sugar cane 1. Time 2. Fire Instant cane is sliced, sweet mass inside starts to harden Must get cane into boiling water within 48 hours Preferably 24
- 9. The Solution to Sugar Cane Problem Create a system with army of workers Swarm through fields cutting the cane Haul piles to be crushed into a syrup that flows into boiling room Group responsible for cutting and supplying wood for fire Working around the clock, cook and clean bubbling liquid Sweetest syrup makes sweetest sugar
- 10. The Solution to Sugar Cane Problem Plantation Exists to produce only one product New approach Normally farms have variety and support owners Instead, machine designed to satisfy just one craving of buyers potentially thousands of miles away Needed ideal locations Rich soil to support growth Close to water to ship to countries quickly Filled with trees ready to be cut down
- 11. The Solution to Sugar Cane Problem Tropical islands met these requirements Found in their search for trade routes to Asia Used slaves to build army of workers Originally prisoners of war and native people Not strong enough to withstand the heat of the islands and grueling work Bartholomew de Las Casas, Spanish priest, suggested bringing in Africans Wanted to protect natives Africans perceived to be hard-working, strong, resilient, excellent in agriculture and adapted to tropical climate
- 12. The Solution of Slavery Unpaid workforce Little regard for health of worker Grueling work 14 – 18 hour days Deplorable living conditions Serves as model for others Dehumanized Africans Created justification since “others” were doing it
- 13. Slavery Begins in the New World Colonists setting up in New World and recognize need for cheap labor Need help setting up towns First slaves arrive in Jamestown, VA in 1619
- 14. Triangular Slave Trade First Leg Left Europe headed to Africa Ships carried supplies for sale and trade Second leg Cargo was sold or bartered for slaves Slaves taken through Middle Passage from Africa to the New World (Caribbean or Americas) Third leg Slaves sold in Caribbean or Americas Picked up goods to send to Europe Caribbean – sugar, rum and molasses New World – tobacco and other crops
