   Haiti:
   Wikipedia wrote:In the midst of the French Revolution (1789–1799), slaves and free people of colour revolted in the Haitian Revolution (1791–1804), culminating in the abolition of slavery and the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte's army at the Battle of Vertières. Afterward the sovereign nation of Haiti was established on 1 January 1804 – the first independent nation of Latin America and the Caribbean, the second republic in the Americas, the only nation in the western hemisphere to have defeated three European superpowers (Britain, France and Spain), and the only nation in the world established as a result of a successful slave revolt.

     @charlesrothmpc Sadly it all went to hell from there. As a tool for ending oppression, revolution doesn't work.

     @charlesrothmpc On the other hand, reformation is too slow when there is grave injustice. It's a hell of a dilemma.
