Explanation:
Haiti is an island country in Central America, on Hispaniola Island. Christopher Columbus discovered Hispaniola in 1492 during his first voyage towards India. After the island had been discovered and conquered, the Spaniards exploited the island for gold and converted almost all inhabitants into slaves.
In 1697, French hunters inhabited the western part of the island and built their settlements. By the time, the western part of Hispaniola became the richest colony in the 18th century as the French brought African slaves to work and produce sugar and other industrial goods.
But, the strong influence of the French Revolution resulted in the launching of the Haitian Slave Revolt against slavery and Napoleon’s government. After thirteen years of struggle, French forces were defeated on 1 January 1804 – when Haiti finally became an independent nation.
There's no perfect answer to this question (even the question acknowledges this problem). In my opinion, the U.S. was put on a path to Civil War the very moment the U.S. Constitution was signed. The Constitution brought a bunch of colonies into a union together, even though some of those colonies relied heavily on slavery and believed that slavery was morally defensible, while others did not rely on slavery and believed that slavery was a terrible thing. It was only a matter of time before the debate over slavery turned into a violent clash over slavery.
The majority of the European uprisings failed as a result of military force and a lack of popular support. (Option b).
Revolutions of 1848, constituted a series of republican revolts against European monarchies, beginning in Sicily, and spreading to France, Germany, Italy, and the Austrian Empire. All those riots resulted in failure and repression, following by widespread disillusionment among liberals.
