I assume that it is nothing if you can't provide any examples. Slaves, blood sports, women traded for power and sex are all the things that first came to mind

There is a big question with Slavery and Sex trade. UN estimates about 50 million people today but I have seen some figures that put it closer to 280 million.

Depending on if you are going by total numbers or a percentage of the population can sway the messaging on this wildly.
