Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Map 5.3, the largest source of African slaves was the region of Congo and Angola, located in present-day central and southwestern Africa. The map shows that this area supplied the largest number of enslaved Africans to both the Portuguese and the Spanish colonies in the Americas. While other regions, such as the Bight of Benin and the Gold Coast, also contributed significantly to the slave trade, they did not surpass the number of enslaved Africans brought from Congo and Angola.
