These African tribes were hit hardest by the Atlantic slave trade

5. Fon

The Fon are the largest ethnic group in the West African country of Benin, found particularly in its southern region. They are also found in south-west Nigeria as well as in Togo. They were noted by early 19^th-century European traders for their N’Nonmiton practice or Dahomey Amazons – which empowered their women to serve in the military. Actually, the famous Black Panther movie female warriors were inspired by the Fon female warriors.
