25 mar 1807 año - Slavery is getting banned
Descripción:
After Britain abolished the slave trade in 1807 and slavery in 1834, it used the idea of "freeing" people as a justification for imperialism. British officials claimed they were bringing freedom and civilization to other parts of the world, especially Africa. This helped justify British control over colonies, even though it was also about economic exploitation and gaining resources.
