Hello! I'm happy to help you on that!

  1. France and England both knew that the trade with Asia could bring a great amount of wealth to their countries, but the trade routes at the time were dangerous to travel. This was a major concern for both England and France, and was a cause for search of a northwestern trade route.
  2. They wanted to compete with the Portuguese and Spanish territories and explorations. Portugal was setting a trade route along the coast of Africa, so this encouraged both nations to fins a quicker route in the northwest.
  3. Most of the routes were passing over Muslim lands, and you needed to trade with Turks, Arabs, Persians, and Musilims as well. Because of heavy Christian-Muslim tensions, paying to these people was considered to be out of the rule by some English and French rulers. So they were actually trying to "bypass" their enemies to get all the Asian items they wanted.

Have a great day! :)

What aspects of buying and selling of slaves does Northup single out for condemnation?
Arturiano [62]
The degrading show and presentation of slaves--Soloman Northrup's description of the slave auction shows his disgust for the examination of slaves as if they were horses on parade. The act takes away humanity and creates property. 

Northrup describes slaves having to open their mouths to be inspected. Buyers would inspect the bodies of slaves looking for marks or physical attributes they needed in a slave. The process includes cleaning up slaves to help improve the value.
