Answer:
The United States was not the only or even first country to end slavery.
Explanation:
In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation declaring “all persons held as slaves… shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free,” effective January 1, 1863.
It is true that they had the different types of rule as the Italian city-states have always been very self-suficient in a way (mostly politically not so much economically). This lead to a system or method called autonamy where each city-state more or less had the right for self-government. This also depended on the area of life we're referring to.
