India, china, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Russia, Nigeria, Democratic Republic of Congo, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Thailand. One might wonder why these counties are listed above, no it is not to express the countries with the highest population rates, it is to show the counties who still have slaves working on their lands.
            Slavery supposedly came to an end many years ago, however all of these counties listed above populate their land with enslaved people. It was clear that many people have to work in poor conditions but it is now obvious that millions are being forced into slavery. According to statistics counties with an instable or corrupt government are vulnerable to becoming a home to slaves. Population is also a very large factor i8n which countries will become slave keeping countries, however the United States is the third most populated country in the world and it is has incredibly low rates of slavery. As mentioned above the stability and validity of a country is a defining factor in whether a country will become a country vulnerable to enslaving people.  
            It is unbelievably important for people to read articles like the one above, because the world must be aware of the inhumanities that still take place around the world. Slavery is not a resolved issue it is taking over lives of innocent people. It is the world’s people’s job to rid the world of this ghastly matter. Writing about issues like this are not enough something must be done to end slavery for good.
