I would tell the British government to forget about the spice trade give up on Africa and concentrate on keeping the Americas

Fuck me. That would have totally, and I mean totally, changed the course of human history.

Britain didn't invent slavery so it wouldn't have meant no slaves. And the French would have expanded into Africa. Also the Belgians. ( and look what they did)
Bit pedantic I know.
I know probably would of eliminated the slave trade before it began as well

It would also have meant there wouldn't be any cotton to be sent over to Manchester to manufacture into goods, and there wouldn't be a need for the vast expansion from the industrial revolution. And without the slave trade, America wouldn't have boomed like it did.

Course, the slave trade was abhorrent, but just sayin', the knock on effects of certain actions could be enormous.
