This map of triangular trade in the Caribbean in 1766 will help your students investigate how European empires organized Atlantic commerce and how they struggled to control it. The map features British, Danish, Dutch, French, and Spanish colonies, major trade and smuggling routes, and raw materials such as sugar, coffee, cacao, tobacco, wood, and silver. As your students explore this map, ask them how control of islands, ports, and resources shaped patterns of trade. What does the presence of smuggling routes suggest about the limits of European imperial control?
