1. The Europeans were not the first to traffic in slaves. If you're referring to the African slave trade circa 1600's - present (YES - PRESENT) none of it could have taken place without substantial assistance from Africans. (VERY unpopular and/or politically incorrect, but true).
2. It was not Jamestown. As Roanoke simply disappeared - we probably will never know the specifics. Best guesses: Lack of food, disease, cold, natives, lack of food...
3. Nelson.
4. Google Napoleon.
5. Which time?
6. They were alive.
I know it's hopeless - but, next time, please do not wait until the night before and ask strangers for the answers. It's all in your textbook and/or notes.

Be careful about that first question, since slavery has had a long and ugly career in most areas of the world. One can point to the Irish taking slaves back in the 3rd-6th centuries, but they didn't begin it. Germans to Slavs as slaves even before this, therefore, from the word Slav we get slave.
