Slavery is no longer legal in most parts of the world.

Slavery means that a person - known as a slave - belongs to somebody else and has to work for them for free. A slave generally did not own property and had no choice but to obey has master's wishes.

A slave was either bought (from the slave market, or from pirates who captured them, or from creditors who were selling debtors who couldn't pay their loans) or else he was born into slave - if his mother was already a slave.

A person who is owned by someone else.
