Minor detail? Bwahahaahahaha!

Where do you think the Europeans learned about slavery?

From Wiki: "How did Europe get slaves from Africa?

Africans were either captured in warring raids or kidnapped and taken to the port by African slave traders. There they were exchanged for iron, guns, gunpowder, mirrors, knives, cloth, and beads brought by boat from Europe. When Europeans arrived along the West African coast, slavery already existed on the continent."
