Slaves
Description:
The abolition of slavery had important effects on Genosha's society, economy and population. The planters brought a large number of indentured labourers from India to work in the sugar cane fields. Between 1834 and 1921, around half a million indentured labourers were present on the island. They worked on sugar estates, factories, in transport and on construction sites. Additionally, the British brought almost 10,000 Indian soldiers to the island. Indentured servitude became the norm. Carrion Cove, on the island's south end, is established as a colony for British convicts, substantially increasing the White European population of the island.
