In the early and late 1800's Slavery has been around since ancient times. The Catholic Church formally approved slavery in the 1400s and Spanish and Portuguese seamen took slaves from Africa at this time. Slavery was introduced into the British Colonies in North America during the 1600s by the Dutch. After breaking off from the England, Americans fought a civil way to abolish slavery in the 1860s.
