This means most of Africans that were taken to America as slaves were war prisoners before being sailed through the Atlantic. During this centuries it is estimated around 12 million Africans were captured and taken through the Atlantic although some of them died in the trip. Considering this, it can be concluded slave trades obtain slaves by capturing them in war.
