What is true concerning European contact and trade with Africa between A.D. 1450 and 1700?

Africans were always treated as property and as slaves in America, even from the very first day that an African arrived in what is now the U.S.

Europeans started the slave trade – before 1450 there were no slaves anywhere in the world.

Europeans soon joined the West Africans’ long-established trade in humans; by 1700, Europeans shipped hundreds of thousands of slaves to American plantations.

All of the above are true.

    

What was the basic political trend in Europe that allowed for exploration and colonization?

Nobles held the vast majority of political power and forced a decentralization of political authority so that kings and the central governments became less influential in state affairs.

Populist leaders took advantage of unrest and were able to gather “peoples armies” and force the aristocracy to make laws that favored the common people.

Kings began to undermine the power of the nobility and create more centralized states in part because taxation (gold) gave them the ability to raise armies and build ships apart from the nobility.

The Church in each country grew more and more powerful, so that kings and high nobles served as puppets for bishops in Catholic countries and of church heads in Protestant countries.
