The colonies were called the British America, just like the West Indies were called the British West Indies. Then when the 13 colonies declared independence, resulting in the Revolutionary War. Upon victory over the British Empire, the United States of America was formed. So as you can see, there was no America before 1783. Accurate history demands accuracy.

The Barbery slave trade which persisted until the 1800s was primarily muslim pirates raiding coastal European towns and villages and enslaving the entire populations. Women were sold into harems and the men were either sold as workers or castrated and sold as eunuchs.
