The emperor and advisory council, confirmed in their decision by the governors assembly, have decided that slavery is not conducive to the principles of virtue and self improvement that we esteem, either for the slaves or the masters. From this day forward, every man and woman will be born free, and may only be enslaved in cases of crime and unpaid debts, in which case they will set free upon the full payment of their debts. And conscription is still allowed. (Hereditary slavery eliminated within a generation. Slavery as punishment discouraged--basically only high crimes are allowed to be punished with lifetime imprisonment. For smaller crimes, the state may derive only compensatory labor for food and shelter, all else goes to benefit the victims.)
