Republic of Haiti

Republic of Haiti appears on the map from 1821 to today. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1822, it covered about 83,656 km².

One of the realms of Haiti. The French colony of Saint-Domingue was the richest in the Caribbean, producing sugar and coffee with the labour of about half a million enslaved Africans. In 1791 they rose in revolt, and under the formerly enslaved Toussaint Louverture they ended slavery and fought off Spanish, British and French armies.
