Well, then. This is where Hangbe ruled, where the Royal Palaces of Abomey are located, and where her descendents live. So the point about slavery stands, no?

I didn't discuss your point about slavery. I don't even want to think about agreeing or not since everyone will always have different opinions about it. That's why I started my first comment with "some corrections." Just wanted to correct a few things that were not.
Although I find it jaw-dropping that 20% of the slave trade came from such a tiny place! ;)
