Default Re: [BANESTORM] Ending slavery in the Evil Empire

Actually it is strictly forbidden to release anyone from slavery in the empire. the only person who can is the emperor himself, if asked by the owner. A Ok is very rarely given.

First you have to make it legal that a master can free his own slaves, if he wants to.

This first step is not such a big problem, because people who have hope to be rleased , work normally harder, and the masters are not unhappy because nobody orders them to set valuable property free.

Slavery is heriditary in the empire, changing this can be a step to reduce slave numbers, but it is also likely that children are just dumped in the streets at night to die. Because the owners have no monetary reward for raising them.

The usual ways of freeing slaves in history have been discusssed here. So I want repeat them.
