There’s literally no country where it’s de jure legal now, and fairly few where it’s legal in practice. Compare this to any number of historical societies where they were the majority.
Modern slavery includes forced labor, bonded labor, trafficked people, and child labor - it’s analogous to chattel style historic slavery in that the conditions are similar.
Current estimates are 50m people living in these conditions today, vastly more than at any time in human history.
