The slave codes were laws enacted in the American colonies and later in the southern United States to regulate the institution of slavery. They restricted the rights and freedoms of enslaved people, enforced harsh punishments for disobedience or escape, and reinforced the power of slave owners over their human property. These codes varied by region but generally aimed to maintain control and dominance over enslaved individuals.
