John Smith History When it comes to describing why relative concentration of energy shifts from Asia and Africa to the North Atlantic region, resulting in the emergence of more complex societies in the North Atlantic world, I am going to focus on the two factors I feel are most important forming this occurrence. In this paper, I am going to discuss the importance of these factors and what they did history over time. The two most important factors that helped this energy shift from Asia/Africa to the North Atlantic region resulting in the emergence of more complex societies in the North Atlantic World are in my opinion sugar and the Atlantic slave trade. Throughout history sugar and the Atlatntic slave trade have been two things that have been brought to attention many times. Sugar has become something in all countries today that has been used to produce a lot of wholesome products and beverages. Other things sugar has to offer include fuel and livestock feed. The other important factor is the Atlant ic slave trade. Although the Atlantic slave trade is not something people look at as something good that has happened, it not only diversified the world and also helped with major farming and industrial production. I will start to examine and explain why I chose these two factors as the most important to the shifts of energy towards the emergences of more complex societies.
