Lee Habeeb wrote about abolition in Newsweek. He said, "Some nations would abolish slavery later than others: Cuba (1886), Brazil (1888), Korea (1894), Egypt (1895), Italy (1889), China (1906), Russia (1917), Afghanistan and Hong Kong (1923),
Iraq and Turkey (1924),
Persia (1929),
Ethiopia (1935),
Kuwait (1949),
Niger (1960) and Saudi Arabia and North Yemen (1962).
Legalized slavery, it turns out, endured the longest in Middle Eastern, African and Asian nations. Slavery persists today, with more than 40 million people enslaved—more than at any time in human history."
