Why was slavery started?
Cheap labor. Slavery has existed throughout all of human history, and surely also pre-human history (even ants do it). It did not start in America or Africa; it merely continued. Industrialization finally ended it, because slaves were found to be inefficient at factory work. Hence the industrialized North was the first to make slavery obsolete... and once that occurred, the North was free to turn slavery into a moral stick with which to flog the pre-industrial South.

Why did the institution of slavery begin and when?
Slavery has been with us for a very long, long time. It is mentioned in 6800 B.C. The world’s first city-state emerges in Mesopotamia. Land ownership and the early stages of technology bring war in which enemies are captured and forced to work: slavery. It most likely was the same for thousands of years before that.

If you are asking about the origin of slavery, it has existed since before recorded history.
