Question

What is the difference between ending the slave trade and ending slavery?

Answer 1

Ending the slave trade was when they stopped selling slaves and whatever slaves they had, they got to keep. Ending slavery was when they stopped slaves from all of their work, although they had to pay their masters for the land they used

Answer 2

Ending the slave trade and ending slavery have two completely different effects on a society. Ending the slave trade merely stops owners from exchanging different people. Even though the slave trade may end, slavery would still exist in the society. However, ending slavery completely in a country now allows individuals who were slaves to have more political and economic rights since they are now free citizens.
