Best Answer

There are actually multiple sugar revolutions.

The first sugar revolution happened as Europe was introduced to Sugar cane by East Asia. It was described as a "heavenly gift".However, as China closed trade around the time of Zheng He's voyage (Zheng He was a mariner/sailor) (1434~), the rest of the countries such as India could not keep up with the sugar cane demands of Europe. This was named as 'The Fall of the East'. Therefore there was a major switch in the production of sugar cane. Europeans started to conquer warmer islands, such as the Canary Islands, to be able to produce sugar cane for themselves. Another key factor is that sugar cane agriculture was intense. No worker or servant did that much work and consequently refused to do so. This was the beginning and introduction to the booming of slavery.

the sugar revolution that took place in the sixteenth century was the exchange of the chief crop of tobacco in the British west indies to sugar production

Another sugar revolution, the one referred to as THE sugar revolution, is the switch of power/economic value of Brazil. Instead of Brazil, the Caribbeans became the new major sugar cane and slave center.
