1. the slave code for the region
2. the slave code for the agricultural product
3. the personality and character of the slave owner
4. the number of slaves and how long the owner had owned them

The correct option is: 3. the personality and character of the slave owner

They could not exercise any legal action: contracts, marriage or ownership. The personal situation varied according to the character and treatment of their owners.
