The trade route of rum, slaves, sugar, and molasses was called the triangular trade as it formed a triangle between America, Africa, and the West Indies. The middle passage consisted of large number of enslaved Africans, who were brought to the Americas as part of the triangular trade.
This system of trade was extremely profitable for the Europeans and was used to transport millions of slaves from Africa to the Americas through the middle passage. The slaves were used to work on plantations and in mines, and many of them died from the harsh conditions.
The triangular trade was eventually abolished in the 19th century, but the legacy of this system of trade continues to impact the world today.
