<human>:  I have a question about the Atlantic Slave trade. Where did the slaves come from?
<bot>: The majority of slaves came from West Africa. The Atlantic Slave Trade was a series of events that took place from the 16th to the 19th centuries, during which millions of Africans were captured and sold into slavery. The trade was driven by the demand for labor in the Americas, and was a major factor in the development of the Americas.
