Slavery in the United States was the legal institution of human chattel enslavement, primarily of native Africans and African Americans, that existed in the United States of America from the beginning of the nation in 1776 until passage of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865. Slavery had been practiced in British America from early colonial days, and was legal in all thirteen colonies at the time those colonies formed the United States. Under the law, an enslaved person was treated as property and could be bought, sold, or given away. Slavery lasted in about half of U.S. states until 1865. As an economic system, slavery was largely replaced by sharecropping and convict leasing.
Individual liberty was safeguarded by the first 10 amendments, also referred to as "The Bill of Rights."
The Bill of Rights, an Act of Parliament passed in 1689, is regarded as a fundamental turning point in English constitutional law since it defines a number of fundamental civil rights and makes it clear who will succeed the monarchy. The Declaration of Right, which William III and Mary II were given by the Convention Parliament in February 1689 in order to invite them to become joint sovereigns of England, was restated in statutory form and obtained the Royal Assent on December 16, 1689.
