People of Europe were able to reach sub-Saharan Africa around 1450 when the Portuguese invented the caravel, a ship that should sail into the wind. This ship allowed sailors to sail back up the western coast of Africa and back to Europe.

The Portugese shipped the slaves back to Spain and Portugal where they worked on the sugar plantations.
