They fueled rivalries between tribes and suggested the tribal leaders to sell prisoners of war.

Option c

Explanation:

Slave trading is one of the darkest activities done in Human history. The Europeans were a major part of this unethical trade of humans from Africa. They wanted slaves to work in mines, plantations, and domestic tasks. Therefore, to meet their requirements, they would commonly kidnap people from Africa and bring them back to the homeland or America to work.

But, when the demand for slaves increased and kidnapping was practically impossible, the Europeans fueled rivalries between the African tribes and suggested the tribal leaders sell the prisoners of war.
