Toussaint L'Ouverture was the prominent leader of the Haitian Revolution, which ultimately led to Haiti's independence from France. His strategic military leadership and diplomatic skills helped unite various factions of enslaved people and free people of color against colonial rule. L'Ouverture's efforts culminated in the successful revolt that began in 1791, although he was later captured by the French and died in captivity in 1803. Haiti officially declared independence on January 1, 1804, under the leadership of Jean-Jacques Dessalines, who succeeded L'Ouverture.
Haiti has experienced several conflicts throughout its history, including the Haitian Revolution (1791-1804) which led to its independence from France. Following independence, Haiti faced numerous internal conflicts and coups, as well as foreign interventions, including the U.S. occupation from 1915 to 1934. Other notable conflicts include the civil unrest in the late 20th century, particularly in the 1980s and 1990s. While these events can be classified as wars or conflicts, the exact number can vary depending on how one defines "war."

The Moroccan (Morocco) crisis. In 1904 Morocco had been given to France by Britain, but the Moroccans wanted their independence. In 1905, Germany announced her support for Moroccan independence. War was narrowly avoided by a conference which allowed France to retain possession of Morocco. However, in 1911, the Germans were again protesting against French possession of Morocco. Britain supported France and Germany was persuaded to back down for part of French Congo. (the following was used fromhttp://www.historyonthenet.com/WW1/causes.htm )
