Thank you very much and God bless you.
Valuable post.
I recommend reposting on a slow news day, so people pay attention to it.
Slavery ended as an institution in the West with the collapse of the Roman Empire, but was revived a thousand years later because of the immense profits that could be made from sugar. The middle-east and later islamic world never abandoned the practice and it exists to the present day.
“ Afghanistan: Slavery abolished in 1921.
• Persia (Iran): Slavery outlawed in 1929, though formally banned earlier in the 1906 constitution with subsequent legislation needed for enforcement.
• Iraq: Slavery banned in the early 1920s.
• Jordan: Slavery banned in 1929.
• Bahrain: Slavery abolished in 1937.
• Kuwait: Slavery abolished in 1949.
• Qatar: Slavery abolished in 1952.
• Saudi Arabia: Slavery abolished in 1962, one of the last in the region, alongside Yemen.
• Yemen: Slavery abolished in 1962.
• Oman: Slavery outlawed in 1970, one of the last Gulf states to do so.
• Mauritania: Slavery abolished in 1981, the last country globally to do so, though enforcement was weak until criminalization in 2007. Reports indicate modern slavery persists.”

Sudan, still at it.
The slave trade was Islam concuring the Christians throughout Africa. It was a bloody crusade by Mooselimbs. That is why most slaves were Christian.
The Arab slave trade was almost eliminated by Christian, capitalist nations.
It was never completely eliminated in places such as Saudi Arabia. It was lauded and accepted throughout the Ottoman Empire long after the end of WWI.
It continues to this day, much accelerated and broadened after Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama destabilized North Africa by taking out Gadafi, who had become a de-facto ally of the West.
“Sudan, still at it.”
Libya.
Slow news day? What’s that?

“Lasted?” There is still slavery in the Middle East. I saw recent photos of a slave auction in Libya.
Not to mention the women are essentially slaves and children also. Sexual as well as household.
Slavery in MEXICO was abolished in 1829, but you could still buy them, mostly American Indian children as late as 1873.
After the camp grant massacre of Apaches by 150 Papago and Mexican Indios (only 6 whites were involved)the captured children were sold in Mexico.
The US almost caused another INDIAN WAR when it was decided the tribes in the US had to also free their slaves per the 13 amendment. Those slaves were mostly Mexicans and other tribes.
The Cherokees had their own slave rebellion in 1842.
All of our ancestors were slaves at one time or another.
It is STILL going on.
Source: been there.
Abolished? Laws they do not follow. Slavery still in many of those countries. Just goes by another name.
There were slaves in New Mexico (called peonage) well after the civil war and it continues today somewhat.
So much so the anti-peonage law of 1867 has been continuously amended u til as recently as 2000.
Old Mexican ranching families (albeit in the USA) have generational Zuni slaves.
???
So... how'd you escape?
Probably why the Demagogic Party is so at home with jihadists.
Perhaps the greatest slaver of all time — Zubair Pasha — operated in and from a major zariba (thornbush enclave) found in the south Sudan. He kept Egypt’s slave markets filled with tens of thousands of southern captives throughout much of the 19th century.
