In the final quarter of the eighteenth century the movement for the abolition of the Atlantic slave trade gathered force in Britain, the premier European slaving nation, and culminated in a ban from 1807. The British then pressured other nations to sign anti-slave trade treaties. In 1833 slavery in the British plantation colonies was entirely abolished to be followed in time by the French, Scandinavian and Dutch colonies, the South American republics, the United States (in the course of its Civil War), Spanish Cuba and finally, in 1888, the empire of Brazil.
