Thanks. This proves that you have detached yourself from the "real world" concerning Africa

It proves nothing more than you are a colonialist as well as a racist to go with your expressed anti semtism and anit americanism

As well as you have detached yourself from the Russian/Ukrainian war, still claiming that the Ukraine will eventually win this war. Something that is impossible.

Closer to "home", a further small detail.

"The British abolished chattel slavery in Burma. This was however a gradual process. In the report of slavery in Burma and India to the Temporary Slavery Commission in the 1920s, the British India Office stated that the slaves in Assam Bawi in Lushai Hills were now secured the right to buy their freedom; that chattel slavery still existed in parts of Assam with weak British control; that the British negotiated with Hukawng Valley in Upper Burma to end slavery there, where the British provided loans for slaves to buy their freedom; that all slave trade had been banned, and that slavery in Upper Burma was expected to be effectively phased out by 1926."

[Miers, S. (2003). Slavery in the Twentieth Century: The Evolution of a Global Problem. Storbritannien: AltaMira Press. p. 152 - via Wikipedia]

Note: prior to British influence over the nominally independent Karenni, they carried out slave-raids on neighbouring peoples, both for 'home use' and sale.
