In reading this project the reader should have a clear understanding of the Spanish Monopoly and the different factors that lead to the European rivalry in the 14th -18th century in the Caribbean.They should be able to determine if the Spanish Monopoly was the main factor that led to the Rivalry, gain a better awareness of their roots, past and culture . The reason for this topic being chosen was to better identify, analyze, interpret and understand the Spanish Monopoly and the European rivalary. For me, History encourages the mind to think, and this topic brought out that ability. There was an abundance of factual information which then made me use my skills as a historian. The topic itself was a very interesting one which played a big part for me choosing it. They should be able to link the Haitian Revolution to other Revolutions, how they came about and how it affected the most profitable good or produce known as (SUGAR) around that time.

    The Haitian Revolution was one of the world’s most extraordinary revolutions. It was a powerful slave rebellion that occurred from 1791 to 1804 and is the Western Hemisphere’s most successful slave rebellions known.

Many colored people wanted to rebel against them, including Haitian Revolution leader Toussaint Louverture. Also referred to as the “Black George Washington”, he was an ambitious leader who trained thousands of people and fought against three empires-the…

    Because of Haiti’s rough economic start as a free nation and foreign and internal factors, Haiti was not properly set up to industrialize and be able to join a competitive free market without damage being done to the local industries that support Haiti. Before Haiti became a free, independent nation, it was sugar and coffee producing powerhouse owned by the French that relied on slave labor. By period of the French Revolution, plantations in Haiti produced more than half of all the coffee produced around the world and 40% of the sugar for France and Britain, making it a profitable colony for France. Also during this time, the population of slaves in Haiti was between 500 and 700 thousand, heavily outnumbering whites and freed blacks. Due to…

Just as there is no universally accepted definition of minorities, the definition of a ‘migrant’ is subject to discussion. When does a settled migrant community become an…
