The slave revolt in Haiti, known as the Haitian Revolution, began in 1791 and was a pivotal conflict that led to the first successful slave uprising in history. Enslaved Africans in the French colony of Saint-Domingue rose against their oppressors, inspired by the ideals of the French Revolution. After years of brutal fighting, the revolution culminated in the establishment of Haiti as an independent nation in 1804, making it the first black-led republic and the second independent nation in the Americas. The revolution significantly impacted global discussions on slavery and colonialism.
