Well considering how long slavery has been around it's difficult to say. The population distribution would likely be rather different.
This x1000. The west would not have ever become dominant. Some cultures did not practice slavery nearly like how others did, or there have been misconceptions about the nature of the slavery.
Had the Romans never enslaved their captives, there goes a large chunk of the western world right there. That is how they established such dominance. Same with the Americas. Enslaving the country of India allowed Britain to get many precious materials and resources. Needless to say how different things would be had they not enslaved parts of Africa.
The whole world would be different. We'd not be having this discussion were it not for slavery, as sad as it is.they were prisoners and were free after becoming a soldier. Much better than going on stupid crusades and killing everything in site while going "God is love! God is love!"
