Until 1848, the Danish colony of the West Indies has abolished slavery. At that time, people around the world made remarks in an open discussion and opposed violently against barbarous and inhuman slavery.

The abolition of slavery is the end of a barbaristic view of sex, mainly to ensure the peace and survival of the Danish people in the West Indies. Historians are still deeply discussing whether the ban on slave trade derives from interpretive models of humanitarian, economic, and / or foreign policy.
