- The Atlantic slave trade to Brazil refers to the period of history in which there was a forced migration of Africans to Brazil for the purpose of slavery. It lasted from the mid-sixteenth century until the mid-nineteenth century. During the trade, more than three million Africans were transported across the Atlantic and sold into slavery. It was divided into four phases: The Cycle of Guinea (16th century); the Cycle of Angola (17th century) which trafficked people from Bakongo, Mbundu, Benguela and Ovambo; Cycle of Costa da Mina, now renamed Cycle of Benin and Dahomey (18th century - 1815), which trafficked people from Yoruba, Ewe, Minas, Hausa, Nupe and Borno; and the Illegal trafficking period, which was suppressed by the United Kingdom (1815-1851). During this period, to escape the supervision of British ships enforcing an anti-slavery blockade, Brazilian slave traders began to seek alternative routes to the routes of the West African coast, turning to Mozambique.

- Tráfico de escravos para o Brasil refere-se ao período da história em que houve uma migração forçada de africanos para as colônias portuguesas da América, de meados do século XVI até meados do XIX. Africanos, portugueses, holandeses, ingleses e brasileiros dominaram um comércio que envolveu a movimentação de mais de 5 milhões de pessoas. Portugueses e brasileiros foram de longe os que mais traficaram escravos para as Américas. Conforme explica Laurentino Gomes, baseado em informações do slavevoyages.org, eles foram responsáveis pelo transporte da 5,8 milhões de indivíduos, quase metade do total de 12,5 milhões embarcados para a América. Em segundo lugar vêm os britânicos, com 3,2 milhões. Em seguida, mais distantes, vêm os franceses, com 1,4 milhões, os espanhóis, com 1,1 milhão, e os holandeses, com 500 mil. (pt)
