The Black Trade is a slang term for the slave trade.
- It is a socioeconomic practice and cultural custom.

Article VI - Slavery Prohibited: Chattel slavery shall not exist within the Imperium, nor in any territory directly under its control, nor on any member world, nor within any territory with which a member world shall have dealings.
