Did slavery start in the southern colonies of north America give reason to your answer?
Slavery began thousands of years ago. It was so widespread that it is now impossible to tell where it began. In the New World, slavery began with the Spanish who enslaved native peoples to work in the mines and in the fields. When too many of them died of disease and overwork, Spaniards imported slaves from Africa. Slavery was pervasive in Europe during the period when the North American colonies were formed. It was not outlawed in England and its colonies until the 1830s.
