HAITI, LA RANCON DE L'INDEPENDANCE

1804. Haiti is the first modern nation to gain its independence, thanks to a slave revolt. But France imposed a colossal debt on its former colony, condemning it to poverty and chronic under-development: political instability, food crises and violence ensued. This ransom continues to haunt the present-day situation.
