I'm brainstorming an alternate timeline about Asian slaves in America. As other users pointed out in threads about Asian slaves, there are difficulties obtaining slaves from Asia due to many factors like tech level, cultural reasons and other things.

To make the long backstory short for the discussion: In the 16th century, Spain and Portugal along with Holland unite as the Iberian Union, West Africa is Christianized, enslavement of Africans and Native Americans are banned due to alternate New Laws, colonies go bust from the want of labor, Japan converts to Catholicism, earlier discovery of the Pacific Islands and the subsequent population crash of the Islanders, colonists find an untapped source of laborers in Asia and decide to exploit for slave labor in the Iberian colonies.

There are a few ways where Amarelo slaves are obtained in the ATL:
  • Indentured Servitude
  • Slave-raiding
  • Purchasing Prisoners of War
  • Penal Deportation
What would be possible sites in the Asian continent where Amarelo (Yellow) slaves can be procured?
