Slavery
Slavery is a system in which individuals are owned by others, depriving them of personal freedom and forcing them to work without compensation. It has existed in various forms throughout history, affecting millions across different cultures and societies. Slavery can be categorized into several types, including chattel slavery, forced labor, and debt bondage. The transatlantic slave trade, which forcibly transported Africans to the Americas, is one of the most notorious examples. Abolition movements emerged in the 18th and 19th centuries, leading to the legal end of slavery in many countries, though human trafficking and modern slavery persist today.
