Long Flourishing History
All down thru history governments accepted slavery as a matter of money and war. In Africa, different peoples as in others, practiced genocides against each other and sold different of their own neighboring groups into slavery.
Regardless of Intensions
The U.S. Constitution however is the first and only organized attempt, let alone successful attempt, to eliminate slavery and bondsman ship within their juristrictions. This was succeeded in a great civil war in which a historic death count was evidenced.
