list the countries that the west indians came from as slaves?

Answer 1

I assume what you are asking is the names of the countries in Africa where the original slaves in the West Indies came from. The map of Africa today and the map of Africa then are extremely different. Countries as in nation states that we think of today did not really exist in most of Africa. There were several important "kingdoms" in West Africa where most of the slaves came from. They were Ghana, Mali and Songhay. These countries took up most of the territory of Ghana,Ivory Coast, Niger, Nigeria and some areas deep into central Africa.
