The British for sure had African slaves.

Africans enslaved their own people to sell them.

So how is "that whole African enslavement thing all yours"??
Actually in Brazil, slavery wasn't made illegal until 1900, almost 40 years after it ended in the US. In several African countries it was legal until the mid 1970s.
