the international slave trade would be abolished by 1820?Group of answer choicesTrueFalse

The statement "the international slave trade would be abolished by 1820" is True.

In the early 19th century, significant movements against the international slave trade emerged, particularly in Britain and the United States. The British Parliament passed the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act in 1807, which made it illegal to engage in the slave trade throughout the British Empire. Similarly, the United States passed legislation in 1808 that prohibited the importation of slaves. By 1820, these laws were in place, effectively abolishing the international slave trade in those nations.

However, it is important to note that while the trade was abolished, slavery itself continued in many parts of the world for several decades thereafter.
