The Haitian Revolution of 1791 took place in Saint-Domingue, which was a French colony on the island of Hispaniola in the Caribbean. The revolution began in the northern region of the colony, particularly in areas like the Plaine du Nord, and spread throughout the territory. It involved enslaved Africans rising up against colonial rule, ultimately leading to the establishment of Haiti as the first independent Black republic in 1804.
