Let's get real. Part 1 The kind of global imperialism of England, France etc was impossible before the revolution in naval architecture which was part of the scientific revolution. Columbus' vessels were way ahead of anything that could be built even 100 years previous.

Part 2 Slavery in Europe declined with the collapse of the Roman Empire. The demise of that overrated regime also led to a burst of technological innovation in the misnamed "dark ages" But the trans-Atlantic slave trade would have been impossible without good saling vessels.
