Question

Who was sold into enslavement after a local or tribal war?

A) Defeated soldiers

B) African warlords

C) Tribal chieftains

D) Slave traders

Answer 1

A.) Defeated soldiers

Answer 2

The correct answer is D (defeated soldier). After a local or tribal war, defeated soldiers were sold into enslavement. What it suggests, is that, slavery had been present in Africa before the Europeans went there. Though it is different than what we usually generalize as "Slavery". Slavery after a tribal war was considered better than European slavery.
