The Haitian Revolution is often referred to as the largest and most successful rebellion in the western hemisphere. It was a successful anti-slavery and anti-colonial slave uprising against French colonial rule in Saint-Domingue, now the sovereign nation of Haiti.
Slaves initiated the rebellion in 1791 and by 1803 they had succeeded in ending not just slavery but French control over the colony. The Haitian Revolution was the result of a long struggle on the part of the slaves in the French colony of St. Domingue, but was also propelled by the free Mulattoes who had long faced the trials of being denoted as semi-citizens.
The Haitian Revolution is the only successful slave revolt in history, and resulted in the establishment of Haiti, the first independent black state in the New World.
Slaves in the United States and throughout the Americas were inspired by the success of the Haitian Revolution. In 1811, eight years after Haiti gained independence, the German Coast Uprising in Louisiana became the most serious slave revolt in the United States.

Not only did the nation of Israel not yet have a king, but everyone lived as if they had no guidance or leadership. If you read the next part of that sentence as recorded in the Book of Judges, you'll see the meaning: "In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes" (Judges 21:25 New American Standard Version).
The days when God sent judges (leaders) to intervene in Israel's history were days when the people forgot the leadership of God and lived like they had no leadership. They needed strong leaders from God (the judges) to guide them back to strength and to faithfulness.
