Original Note:
1. Around 12.5 million Africans were enslaved in the Atlantic slave trade with only 10.7m reaching the Americas alive 2. The figure of 1.25m Europeans being enslaved is disputed and refers to those enslaved by Arab/Amazigh slavers in the MENA, and not sub Saharan Africa anyway https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300212549/atlas-of-the-transatlantic-slave-trade/
