Black people primarily arrived in Haiti through the transatlantic slave trade, which forcibly brought millions of Africans to the Americas, including the island of Hispaniola, where Haiti is located. Beginning in the 16th century, enslaved Africans were brought to work on sugar and coffee plantations. Over time, these enslaved individuals and their descendants formed a significant part of Haiti's population. The Haitian Revolution (1791-1804) ultimately led to the establishment of Haiti as the first independent Black republic, following a successful slave revolt against French colonial rule.
