Some slave owners treated their slaves badly because they saw them as primitive people, not high enough to exist in their league. Because slave owners bought their slaves they regarded them as property and not people. In the past slaves had no rights.

How did whites treat the slaves?

Most of the whites treated the slaves horribly. Some treated them fair, but most treated them horribly. They weren't treated like the whites, there were basically treated like dirty rags. The slaves were taken away from their families and never saw them again unless they were freed or ran away. When slaves ran away the got caught. The slave owners killed the slaves by beating them to death.. Nobody wants to be treated like that. They even had little kids working as slaves, the kids only got two shirts a year, and if they got worn out they wouldnt have to go bare naked. Life wasn't easy as a slave.

That depends on the slave owners. A majority of slave owners treated slaves as property because that was how they were viewed as. Some would treat them nicely, some would be cruel and harsh.

Because they felt a feudal obligation towards them. The Confederate president, Jefferson Davis, treated his slaves so well that they didn't want their freedom. This was one reason he was elected - he looked like the noble face of slave-owning.


What countries beside America were slaves?

At some time in history every culture, nation, and country has had slaves. It is only within the past couple of hundred years that countries began to make slavery a crime. There are still a few places in the world where slave markets exist and the ownership of slaves is considered both normal and necessary. For example, the entire Bible assumes that owning slaves was ubiquitous. Several of Saint Paul's letters assume this and contain advice to Christian slave owners how to treat their slaves and/or to Christian slaves to respect their owners even if those owners were not Christians.
