RE: The Arabic Slave Trade vs. European Slave Trade - which was worse?

in #life7 years ago

Europeans have a long history of enslaving each other also.
One of the biggest Viking commodities were slaves. They did a roaring trade with the Byzantines.
The Germans had slaves.
The Celts traded in slaves.
The Romans traded in slaves.
The Greeks had slaves.

Regardless of whoever is slaving, it is a nasty business.

Good point! Slavery was just a part of life for centuries and even millennias.
