The Haitian Revolution is a unique historical event in many ways. It was both an offshoot of the French Revolution, but also an anti-colonialist revolution. It was also the second American nation to successfully win its independence.

Because here, in the colony built upon the countless bodies of the enslaved, sugar is king. But not for long.
