155 years have passed since slavery was abolished in the USA

Anti-slavery, or abolitionism, is the social trend aimed at ending black slavery in the United States and Latin America between the 18th and 19th centuries. The idea of ​​the abolition of slavery gained support in countries such as Great Britain, Canada, France and Russia. The International Anti-Slavery International was established in 1839 in Great Britain. The abolition of slavery in the USA was essentially the accusation of slavery and the opposition of social thought against it. In the 1830s, the current reached wide dimensions in the northern states. In 1859, a revolt for the abolition of slavery began in the state of Virginia under the leadership of John Brown. After the end of the civil war in the USA between 1861 and 1865, legal slavery was abolished. The 16th President of the USA, Abraham Lincoln, had an important influence on the abolition of slavery in the USA. The first laws on the prohibition of slavery were enacted in Britain and the USA in the first quarter of the 19th century, and then other European states followed them. It was the first Ottoman Empire to abolish slavery in 1857 after England in Europe. In 1926, the League of Nations banned slavery all over the world, and later the United Nations confirmed this provision.
