titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted April 30, 2012 Much better. The south would have developed industry much sooner, as they would have had to, or pick the damn cotton themselves. We wouldn't have a massive underclass to try and educate and incarcerate. All this PC crap wouldn't exist. The civil war would have never happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let Da Big Dog Eat 37 Posted April 30, 2012 A little history here. There never was slavery in Europe nor the US in the early days. The Europeans found it in Africa when they explored it, as America was being popularized. African tribes would go to war and the winner would enslave the losers. They then sold THEIR slaves to Europeans who then imported them to America. It's not an American issue or a black/white issue. Blacks in Africa started it.

SUXBNME 1,324 Posted April 30, 2012 All this PC crap wouldn't exist. . Yes it would. Part of the price of free speech / freedom from tyranny is our 'right' to vocalize our opinions. If we never enslaved anyone, there would still be class warfare / bigotry / hate (whatever), but just directed in a different way. In otherwords, I'm kinda drunk, and I'm sure that this post makes no sense to anyone but myself, so fock off. seriously Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of buying them outright, they came with the house. Alsonotreally. Yes, serfs were tied to the land. Part of their crops went to the land owner, the rest were theirs to keep. More like rent than slavery. There were no whips and the like. They could leave if the could find a better deal. Communications at that time made that difficult but not impossible. They weren't hunted down if they left. And, ancient Rome was centuries removed from the founding of America. Sure it went on with cavemen as well. Fail.

And, ancient Rome was centuries removed from the founding of America. Sure it went on with cavemen as well. Fail. Serfdom varied widely from country to country. In England, it was pretty benign (although not so much in Ireland), as you said. In Russia, it was outright slavery, with whips (the knout) and everything. In France and Spain, it was somewhere in between. And I only brought up Rome to refute your assertion that "there never was slavery in Europe." If you want some more recent examples, see the Vikings, and as late as the 18th Century, the Ottomans were making massive slave raids into the Ukraine. You are correct that Slavery existed in Africa prior to the arrival of the Europeans, and in most cases, it was the Africans who sold each other to the Europeans. However, it was a different and more benign type of slavery than what developed in the sugar colonies of the carribean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
