This is a space for me to draft the history of Slavery in the world of PT, with particular attention to references in past RP and in Wikia articles about the practice.
General research outline:
- Focus on developing timeline of slavery practices during the colonial period (2000 BC - 2000 AD approx.)
- Look for earlier national slavery practices
- Look for "modern day" slavery
