Wasn't there something about slavery 'officially' or 'finally' ending, by some quirk or loophole, in 1995? I'd have to Google for the exact details.

There was a recent case in the UK, which abolished slavery about 30 years before the US, where some guys had been kept as slaves for up to 15 years. The UK only made slavery a crime, in the UK, last year.

I guess the reason is until the last decade or so, after the Iron Curtain came down and with an explosion in human trafficking, it wasn't a problem before so no law was needed against it.

I think there's far more slavery/slave trade now in the world, than there has ever been in history.
