How did the domestic slave trade come about, and do you believe it was mostly different from, or similar to, the Atlantic Slave Trade?

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The domestic slave trade came about when wealthy people realized that they could have servants in their homes and properties to make them do the errands and daily house chores. For these wealthy families, it was also a symbol of power and status in society. The more slaves or servants you had, the more powerful your family was. Sad but true.

I think it was r similar to the Atlantic Slave Trade. at least, it was a similar principle. During the horrible slave trade, African slaves were captured from the African continent and were taken to the Americas to be sold to work in the large plantation fields, producing crops that were traded and exported. The trip to the Americas was unhuman and many slaves died during the trip in those overcrowded spaces in the ship, where diseases and infections spread quickly.
