Do you have any idea of the estimates of Africans sold into the Atlantic slave trade? Now, do you know the estimates(which admittedly are more wild in variation because records are harder to come by) of how many Africans and Europeans were taken in the Islamic slave trade?
Look those numbers up and then come back.
