The fight for independence in Saint-Domingue (now Haiti) was primarily led by Toussaint Louverture, a former enslaved person who became a prominent leader in the Haitian Revolution. Inspired by the principles of the American and French revolutions, he sought to abolish slavery and establish a free republic. Louverture's leadership and military strategies were pivotal in the struggle against colonial rule, ultimately leading to Haiti's independence in 1804.
