Bordeaux
Explanation:
- The Caribbean colonies have been a major supplier of indigo, tobacco, coffee & sugar. The settlements of Martinique, Guadeloupe and San Domingo in the Caribbean have been major suppliers of products such as tobacco, indigo, sugar and coffee.
- However, Europeans' reluctance to work in remote and unknown lands implied a scarcity of workers on the plantations. This was then accomplished by triangular trade between Europe, the Americas & Africa with slaves.
- French merchants purchased and sent slaves from Africa to the Caribbean and were major tobacco suppliers, indigo, sugar & coffee suppliers. The slave trade has thrived economically in French port cities such as Bordeaux and Nantes.
- Branded and chained for three months, for their journey across the Atlantic to the Caribbean, the slaves were crammed in their ships. They were sold there to the owners of the plantation. The use of slave labour allowed the increased demand on the European indigo, sugar, & coffee markets to be fulfilled. However, slavery was eventually abolished in the French colonies in 1848.
