This document details the shift in the Caribbean economy from tobacco to sugar production. Initially, Europeans settled in the Caribbean around 1600 and grew tobacco due to high European demand and relatively low initial capital requirements. However, overproduction and competition from Virginia tobacco led to declining profits. Planters then turned to sugar, which required more capital but yielded significantly higher profits due to constant demand and the ability to create various products like rum. This led to the growth of large plantations, increased enslavement of Africans, and the Caribbean becoming a sugar-based economy, supported by European investors.
