Slave trade: 

Slave trade In most African societies, There was very little difference between the free peasants and the feudal vassal peasants. Slaves of the Songhai Empire were used primarily in agriculture; they paid tribute to their masters in crop and service but they were slightly restricted in custom and convenience. These non-free people were more an occupational caste, as their bondage was relative.

ABOLITION: 

ABOLITION Beginning in the late 18 th century, France was Europe's first country to abolish slavery, in 1794, but it was revived by Napoleon in 1802, and banned for good in 1848.

Slave trade: 

Slave trade Slavery as practised in what is modern Ethiopia and Eritrea was essential domestic.

Slave Trade: 

Slave Trade The very earliest external Slave trade was the trans-Saharan trade. Although there had long been some trading up the Nile river and very limited trading across the western desert, the transportation of large numbers of slaves did not become viable until camels were introduced from Arabia in the 10 th century.

Zanzibar was once East Africa's main slave-trading port, and under Omani Arabs in the 19 th century as many as 50,000 slaves were passing through the city each year.

Slave Trade: 

Slave Trade The first European to arrive on the coast of Guinea were the Portuguese; the first European to actually buy slaves in that region was Antao Goncalves, a Portuguese explorer.

Slave Trade: 

Slave Trade found that volcanic islands were ideal for growing sugar. Sugar growing is a labour-intensive undertaking and Portuguese settlers were difficult to attract due to heat, lack of infrastructure, and hard life. To cultivate the sugar the Portuguese turned to large numbers of African slaves. Elmina Castle on the Gold

Description: 

Description In 1807, the U.K Parliament passed the Bill that abolished the trading of slaves. The King of Bonny (now Nigeria ) was horrified at the conclusion of practice: We think this trade must go on. That is the verdict of our oracle and the priests. They say that your country, however great, can never stop a trade ordained by god himself.
