The correct answer is C. Thirty-two years earlier
Explanation:
The abolition of slavery in Britain took place in 1833 through the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 that declared owning slaves was illegal in almost the British Empire, except by the territories of Ceylon (Sri Lanka) and Saint Helena, that were both islands that belong to Great Britain and in which slavery continued being legal. On the other hand, in the U.S. slavery was abolished in 1865 with the 13th amendment that established slavery or involuntary servitude, except if this was part of a punishment for a crime was illegal, and after previous failed attempts to abolish slavery. Thus, while Britain abolished slavery in 1833 in the U.S. this happened 32 years later in 1865.
