Herodutus
in: „The Histories,“ described the fleet ofAthens in the battle of Salamis, the cost was 50 Silver Dinars, what
historians found the mines was over work by slaves. Athens the sit of Democracy was on the
shoulder Economy of slaves and women with not rights.
Still,

workers from China
are being brought to the west kept in bondage for slave.
