The institution only became prominent in the area following two major events the Louisiana Purchase 1803 and the invention of the cotton gin by Eli Whitney 1793 . This led to a mass movement of slave owning proprietors to the area of present day Missouri and Arkansas , then known as Upper Louisiana . However, the spread of major cotton growth was limited to the more southerly area, near the border with present day Arkansas . Instead, slavery in the other areas of Missouri was concentrated into other major crops, such as tobacco , hemp , grain and livestock .

Slavery in Georgia U.S. state Georgia is known to have been practiced by the original or earliest known residents of the future colony and state for centuries prior to European settlement. However, the penal colony, under James Oglethorpe , is known to have been the only British colony to have banned slavery before legalizing it 1735 with the help of George Whitfield . It was eventually legalized by royal decree in 1751.

Slavery in Africa has a long history, and Slavery in modern Africa continues today . Types of African slavery Chattel slavery Chattel slavery was the type of slavery practiced in the Americas during the time of the Atlantic slave trade . Slaves were used as workers for Americans. Pawnship Pawn law Pawnship or debt bondage slavery involves the use of people as collateral finance collateral for debt . Slave labor is performed by the debtor, or a Kinship relative of the debtor usually a child . Typically, a child, used as collateral in pawnship, married into the creditor creditor s family causing the debt to be forgiven. Origins Slavery existed in Africa well before the Atlantic slave trade and even before Islamic slave trade. Slavery in Africa more than likely originated from wartime . When a Monarchy kingdom won a war or battle, opponents were taken captive and used as slaves. Another reason for slavery was to increase land ownership ownership of land by increasing the amount of laborers available to work the land. It is for this reason that slave raids became common on neighboring villages. Abolition Slavery in Africa decreased immensely due to the effects of the Atlantic, Red Sea, Indian Ocean and Trans Saharan slave trades abolition. Complete legal abolition of slavery did not cease in Africa until the 21st Century, with Mauretania outlawing the practice only in 2007 however, according to the UN slavery still exists in much of North Africa.
