some ~4 million slaves
Damn, that’s a lot, never really got the scope. In Oz, even if you count convicts and bad attitude to the indigenous, you’d be pushing it to get to 500K
Yep. Part of is that the US had a larger population… but only part of it. Nearly a third of the US South’s population was enslaved.
The US South was one of the worst slaver societies in human history. And that’s a low fucking bar to limbo under.
Significantly fucked up, again, thank you.
