Answer:

Slavery was outlawed in the French colonies.

Explanation:

The French introduced legalized African slavery under the Code Noir into New France. After the port of New Orleans was founded in 1718 with access to the slave colonies of the Caribbean, French colonists imported increased numbers of African slaves to the Illinois Country for use as mining or agricultural laborers.

In 1315, Louis X, king of France, published a decree proclaiming that "France signifies freedom" and that any slave setting foot on the French ground should be freed. This prompted subsequent governments to circumscribe slavery in the overseas colonies.
