Lord Nelson believed that the Slave Trade was a necessary evil which provided a training ground for Britain's sailors and kept her economy strong. His speech against the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_James_Fox#1806:_Final_year Foreign Slave Trade Bill] introduced into Parliament in 1806, stopped the Abolition movement headed by [[William Wilberforce]] from passing laws to ban the slave trade in the British Empire.  However, in July 1807 the destruction of all European settlements on the African continent under [[Mokhachane I (d)]] effectively ended the African slave trade (although not the practice of slavery itself).
