From what I understand the Brits were ahead of their time in abolition.
The Americans may have been too were it not for the southern states. Every time they wanted to do something about the southern delegates would cause an uproar and only during Lincoln's time did it come to a head. I suppose he had the balls to stand up to their bullying tactics, or at least that's what's portrayed.
The Brazilians had as many, or more, slaves than anyone else yet you don't hear too much about them.
Fair play to the Mexicans and the Argies, they didn't have many. Not entirely sure why though.
