EIn 1454, the Vatican implemented an evil plan to exterminate the Kemite people from the surface of Kemeta through a papal bull that remains the trigger for the slave trade. But, was it not with the complicity of European kings. Numerous books and press articles relating the history of the slave trade make every effort to claim that the Portuguese would have set up the slave trade as soon as they arrived in Kemeta. Thus, for these fallacious writings, Europeans would have come to Kemeta in the 15th century with the firm intention of trading.
However, analysis of historical documentation reveals that their intention was absolutely not commercial. And to get a clear idea of their true intention, it suffices to examine the text of the papal bull published in 1454.
8 January 1454: The day the Vatican declared war on Kemeta
The papal bull calling for a "holy war" against the Negroes, dated January 8, 1454 and written by Pope Nicholas V (real name Tomaso Parentucelli) had disastrous consequences for Kemeta. Nevertheless, in the context of historiography, it represents an important "piece of evidence" because it allows us to better understand the state of mind of King Alfonso V of Portugal.
This papal bull of 1454 says a lot about the materialist philosophy of Christendom. Christianity which, moreover, today still accommodates itself without difficulty with the Euro while its African representatives are breaking the bank with the CFA Franc (franc of the African colonies). But hey, the ways of the devil are also impenetrable!

Many Guineans and other blacks who had been captured, some also exchanged for non-prohibited goods or purchased under some other regular contract of sale, were sent to the said kingdoms.
