The correct answer is Haiti.

The Haitian Revolution began shortly after the French Revolution started. This slave led rebellion against the French was indeed lead by Toussaint L'Ouverture. L'Ouverture was a hero for his efforts in this rebellion. Haiti became a unique, independent nation free from French control and also free from the system of slavery.
