A warrior society can not afford slaves, they absorb the defeated into society, they can not afford slaves they need every able bodied person, do you know Africa is a huge continent, there was no slavery in Southern Africa, they fought you, they neither enslaved or sold slaves, they needed each other, the children of the spirit. Anybody was welcome to such nations if they adhered to the laws and customs, they would be given land to farm, this humanity is what allowed colonisers in, they claimed they were hungry, and the kind peoples gave them land, not knowing the envy o the colonisers will end up with them having nothing, people gave the colonisers land in the begining, just as the noble north american native also gave land not knowing the imperialist will want everything, even the lifes of those who saved them from starvation.
