monarch from king located

on the pacific coast of central america
on the pacific coast of south america

Explanation:

The passage discusses the kidnapping and selling of people, which was a common practice in the context of the trans - Atlantic slave trade. The trans - Atlantic slave trade mainly involved the western coast of Africa, where European traders had significant interactions. The eastern coast of Africa was more involved in the Indian Ocean trade. Central and South America's Pacific coasts were not the origin of the people being described in the context of this letter (which was about the African past as per the source).

Answer:

On the western coast of Africa
