As you mention, it is also not the slaves land either as they came from Africa.
So why is it more slaves land than french land?
- boomboomsubban 4y agoIgnoring the evidence that the enslaved Taino to some extent integrated with the imported slaves, the slaves made up 90% of the population and likely an even higher percentage of the workforce. That should give them the best claim to the land
- Glawen 4y agoSo once we reach 90% of the population we can rightfully claim the land? That's how it works? Let me take note for the future then.
- boomboomsubban 4y agoI mean yeah? If your people spend a century integrating with the locals and working the land to the point where you make up the overwhelming majority of the population, it's pretty fair to say you have some right to it.
- Glawen 4y agoWell that is one way of achieving it, the other being killing the local population and get more settlers.
