The British did not ban slavery. They rebranded it as "indentured servitude" and trafficked more than three times as many Indians as they did blacks. And the British East India company was not banned from using slaves.
SLAVERY in sharia law is more ethical than what amaricans did, they still have freedom to buy them selfs out, they have to be taken care off in equal standard to the owner and more,It may even be better than being free i guess, though it is deed full to set free slaves, sometimes for certain actions like accident killings i think free a slave or feeding or clothing a poor family is required

@@tsarinastevens9447...... No, not really. I think it might have been 1515, or close to that time where Queen Isabel of Castilla established as a rule that every person of the newly conquered territories was to be considered as a citizen of the crown and offered the same rights as someone born in Madrid. Slavery was forbidden, seen as a sin against God (and dear Isabel was a VERY religious woman). So, while there were people in the Viceroys of America that did sell slaves, it was compelltley agsidnt the law at the time.... You know, unlike the British.
@@TheLostPrimarch2nd is that right? ... Even though Spain abolished the slave trade in 1817? ... After being pressured into it by Britain?....

Which I should also mention was something William the conquerer made a law in Britain in 1066... So by your logic we had stopped it 476 years before Spain...
@@kingbleh it is. Queen Isabel the Catholic outright forbade slavery. End point there. True as it is, later otter monarchs decided to be asses and instaurate it again, although only in the African territories,because the people from America were citizens of Spain. I did not know about the British pressures, although from what I searched was a bit more complex, because during 1820s there was a whole lot of problems with the ruling monarch and the government, mainly because of French occupation. So, you are right, there was still slavery in Spain and I did not know that. Although, it was different in several rules and points.
No they just treated them like shit. However calling them slaves is highly inappropriate. The British were probably the most active in ending slavery in their country. They nearly bankrupted themselves doing it. The British believed that the Africans were below the Indians (idk why) but still saved many 10s of thousand from it over the first 50 years of the slave trade ban. Just because a country treated its colonies badly doesn’t mean to say they enslaved them. Don’t make assumptions on topics ur not so well informed of. ( I will concede that the British were awful to the Indians though)
There’s a big difference here, chattel plantation slavery common to European colonies is not the same as the types of slavery practiced in Africa, the Middle East, the Maghreb, and Asia. Slavery is still a common practice across Africa to this day, in fact there are more slaves in the world today than at the height of the Atlantic slave trade.

@@rosedudesert4389two reasons 1)i think it's because they had a smoother independence from portugal than the other countries, the reason Latin America abolished slavery faster is cause the break up from Spain was more violent, this also explains Cuba which stayed a part of Spain empire longer than most others. 2) Brazil was the number one (continental wise) to have slaves their native population was smaller than the other countries so it took a while longer.

The UK one is wrong - the date they abolished slavery refers to the trading and then ownership of slaves anywhere in the Empire but it was technically legal until April 2010
Slavery was outlawed by William the Conquerer in England 1068. The British pursued the total abolishment of slavery and dedicated entire fleets and squadrons to it costing the British taxpayer so much that we only paid off those debts 23 years ago. Britain was fighting wars in numerous fronts to ensure the trade was ended.

France actually first attempted to abolish slavery for mainline France in the 1300s, but despite this it still existed within the Mediterranean provinces, and once it became a colonial empire it started to use them in France’s colonies.

Slavery was NOT abolished in the United States. It was restricted for those not convicted of a crime. Under the 13th amendment, slavery is still perfectly allowed as punishment for a crime. And no that doesn't just mean imprisonment. It means literally slavery. Look up Angola Prison in Louisana.
Some US states banned it early, the first state to abolish slavery was Pennsylvania in 1780 and the last state to banned slavery was Mississippi in 1865
The UK and France really don’t get enough recognition for never really having domestic slavery, and going out of their way to start wars over ending slavery. Britain didn’t just end slavery in Britain, they ended slavery across the British empire and actively fought to stop it.
Yeah, but it took them a long time. And slavery was technically already illegal on british soil, but they just thought "Eh, the colonies arent british soil. Well just continue to exercise slavery there".
The US was so into slavery back then that they had embargoed Haiti after the abolition of slavery there and used the country as an example for why slavery should never be abolished is the United States. It was literally a talking point in favor of slavery for 50+ years in congress. Haiti was the first nation to permanently ban slavery. But as a nation of freed black slaves, Haiti was a threat to the existing world order. President Thomas Jefferson worked to isolate Haiti diplomatically and strangle it economically, fearing that the success of Haiti would inspire slave revolts back home.
Actually England was a bit early. William the conquerer abolished it, but the only punishment was a somewhat small fine. However, the fine was just large enough that slave owners started to free their slaves and hire them instead. Within a hundred years, you had synods from westminster denouncing the evils of slavery. Fast forward to the 1700s, and a landmark court case stated that even if someone was legally a slave, if they so much stepped foot on English soil, they became free.
The reason why they abolished slavery so late is because in Islam it is permitted to keep slaves. They only abolished it because of pressure from the UN in the 1960s
slavery was there before islam. islam gave slaves rights. feed them from what you eat, give them the clothes you wear. help them in their duty if u burden them. if they ask for freedom, demand from them an reasonable amount of money. give money to slaves who want freedom. free slaves to gain virtue. the non muslim first broke all the islamic regulations , realised the problem and made muslim country abolish slavery. good thing that there are no wars going on. slaves are only captured in a war. excluding the civilians.
To Islams credit though it made slavery far less harder for the slaves than for the other slave trades. Not that any slavery is good. Just saying. You can look it up, if you are interested. I discovered it while preparing a written test on historical slavery, I also found it interesting that Middle East was generally a lot less racist if any at all.
To be honest, Slavery is as old as humanity, it is not something that just popped into existence, tribes would conquer other tribes and turn some of them into slaves while killing others. I am not trying to blame any race for this issue, it would be dumb as hell. We only started abolishing slavery in this world wide scale today. Not to mention that it was White men who made it possible to end slavery worldwide, so no, I am not trying to blame white men at all, I am grateful for their initiation to end the ownership of a man over another man. @@MMOfreakOUT1

I think it might have been 1515, or close to that time where Queen Isabel of Castilla established as a rule that every person of the newly conquered territories was to be considered as a citizen of the crown and offered the same rights as someone born in Madrid. Slavery was forbidden, seen as a sin against God (and dear Isabel was a VERY religious woman). So, while there were people in the Viceroys of America that did sell slaves, it was compelltley agsidnt the law at the time.... You know, unlike the British.

@@kingbleh it is. Queen Isabel the Catholic outright forbade slavery. End point there.
True as it is, later otter monarchs decided to be asses and instaurate it again, although only in the African territories,because the people from America were citizens of Spain. I did not know about the British pressures, although from what I searched was a bit more complex, because during 1820s there was a whole lot of problems with the ruling monarch and the government, mainly because of French occupation.

Indians weren't slaves under the British rule 😂😂😂
Wtf are you even talking about????
No they just treated them like shit. However calling them slaves is highly inappropriate. The British were probably the most active in ending slavery in their country. They nearly bankrupted themselves doing it. The British believed that the Africans were below the Indians (idk why) but still saved many 10s of thousand from it over the first 50 years of the slave trade ban. Just because a country treated its colonies badly doesn’t mean to say they enslaved them. Don’t make assumptions on topics ur not so well informed of. ( I will concede that the British were awful to the Indians though)
Let me add in Serbia 1835 - the first constitution abolished both serfdom and slavery before even gaining independence

@@rosedudesert4389 From 1822 to 1889 the country was a puppet monarchy ruled by agricultural elites who were benefited from slave labour, that's why Brazil was only starting to industrialize after WW2. When the royal family signed the abolitionist letter they got overthrown.
@@rosedudesert4389two reasons
1)i think it's because they had a smoother independence from portugal than the other countries, the reason Latin America abolished slavery faster is cause the break up from Spain was more violent, this also explains Cuba which stayed a part of Spain empire longer than most others.
2) Brazil was the number one (continental wise) to have slaves their native population was smaller than the other countries so it took a while longer.
@@TheJ33s3 Thank you for the answer, it just comes to my mind that I once read an old book from the municipal library about a former slave from Cuba who managed to escape from the plantation as a young man, he hid in the mountains for several years, fought in the revolution and was interviewed by the author of the book as a very old man.

Slavery was NOT abolished in the United States.
It was restricted for those not convicted of a crime. Under the 13th amendment, slavery is still perfectly allowed as punishment for a crime.
And no that doesn't just mean imprisonment. It means literally slavery. Look up Angola Prison in Louisana.

Ask all the countries that haven’t abolished slavery, when they’re gonna.
The reason why they abolished slavery so late is because in Islam it is permitted to keep slaves. They only abolished it because of pressure from the UN in the 1960s
slavery was there before islam. islam gave slaves rights. feed them from what you eat, give them the clothes you wear. help them in their duty if u burden them. if they ask for freedom, demand from them an reasonable amount of money. give money to slaves who want freedom. free slaves to gain virtue. the non muslim first broke all the islamic regulations
, realised the problem and made muslim country abolish slavery. good thing that there are no wars going on. slaves are only captured in a war. excluding the civilians.
fuck islam
To Islams credit though it made slavery far less harder for the slaves than for the other slave trades. Not that any slavery is good. Just saying. You can look it up, if you are interested.
