Why?
Slavery was abolished for the first time in 1794, then brought back by Napoleon in 1802. It was abolished for good by the decree of 27 April 1848, prepared by Victor Schœlcher. Since the Taubira law (loi Taubira) of 2001, the slave trade and slavery have been recognised as a crime against humanity.
