Slavery in the United States was the legal institution of human chattel slavery that existed in the United States of America in the 18th and 19th centuries after it gained independence and before the end of the American Civil War.he United States was polarized over the issue of slavery, represented by the slave and free states divided by the MasonâDixon line, which separated free Pennsylvania from slave Maryland and Delaware.
In the entire USA in 1860, only 5% of the population owned slaves. Slavery, though dying out, was still practiced in some areas of the North. It was NOT an exclusively southern practice. So it is logical to conclude that LESS than 5% of the Southern population owned slaves. The Civil War was NOT fought to free the slaves in the South.
