9.85 millions afrikans were slaves in Arabia

 Figures on the Arab slave trade in Afrika are hard to come by, but the historian Paul Lovejoy estimates that some 9.85 million Afrikans were shipped out as slaves to Arabia and, in small numbers, to the Indian subcontinent. Lovejoy breaks his figures down as follows:


Between AD 650 and 1600, an average of 5,000 Afrikans were shipped out by the Arabs every year. This makes a rough total of 7.25 million.


Then, between 1600 and 1800, another 1.4 million Afrikans were shipped out by the Arabs. The 19th century represented the highest point of the Arabian trade where 12,000 Afrikans were shipped out every year. The total figure for the 19th century alone was 1.2 million slaves to Arabia.
