Haiti was not the first country to gain its independence. It was however, the first independent nation in the Caribbean and Latin America, the first post-colonial, independent, black-led country in the world, the only nation whose independence was gained as part of a successful slave rebellion, and the second independent nation in all the Americas after the United States.

Haiti was the first country in the Americas to officially abolish slavery. The abolition followed the successful slave revolt that began in 1791, leading to Haiti's declaration of independence from France in 1804. This made Haiti the first nation in the Americas to establish freedom for enslaved people and to abolish slavery entirely.
The certain Brazil was the last country in the Americas to abolish slavery. It would appear that documentation is required to establish a fact that the United States was the first nation in the Americas to adopt slavery. With that said, it's clear that before the United States was an independent country, slavery existed in the Americas where the British, French and Spanish ruled colonies and territories.
