at Haitian:

Imagine if we did not deliver The Great Toussaint Louverture to the French, could have this happened to the Haitians.

The French believed the Haitians had only Toussaint Louverture and they flushed him away because they believed they could have the job done better than him. In 1801 we had our independence right away after we declared the full control of the whole island of Hispaniola.

In fact, The British and the Americans did recognize our independence.

who else did you really want to recognize your independence at that time?

But we let France to seize that opportunity, our egoism.

Then France planed the 1804 as an opportunity to give its undercover Haitians biggest roles in the country's unstoppable birth.

And their roles have led the country til today.

The death of The Great Jean Jacques Dessalines had been in France, s agenda even before "La Bataille de Vertieres', because he was a confident (a skillful warrior) lieutenant of Toussaint Louverture.

How would Haiti be looked today if we were not possessed by our EGOISM?
