the Haitian revolution began because it was unfair how the slaves were being treated badly. they had to work, and if they did something accidentally wrong, they would get hit by a slash or get beaten up. the slaves thought this was unfair, and they were right. soon they had done these steps to declare freedom: Haitian Revolution

The slaves' plan to declare freedom was:

get the slave owner's slash

hit the slave owner with the slash

then burn the plantation

Half of Haity was owned by France and the other half by Spain.

The Haitian Revolution was the result of a long struggle on the part of the slaves in the French colony of St. Dominique, but was also propelled by the free Mulattoes who had long faced the trials of being denoted as semi-citizens.
