Hypothesis

Slavery will be correlated with many social features (see variable list)

Note

Slavery was found to be significantly correlated with each variable tested, but there is no specific variable (social feature) that qualifies as a prerequisite condition for the presence of slavery in a society. Variables were also correlated with each other.
