Complete the following paragraph about enslaved people's efforts to revolt or acquire independence.
krek1111 [17]

There were several instances during the colonial or Revolutionary Era where enslaved people attempted revolt or fight to their own independence. The first nation where a slave uprising was successful was <u>Haiti</u>.

The <u>rebellion </u>resulted in the creation of brutal slave codes that would not be lifted until after the Civil War.

Haiti is an antillean country in America located in the Caribbean Sea. Haiti stands out worldwide for being the first country in which slavery was abolished in 1804, after achieving its independence from France.

This revolution influenced the thinking of the slaves in the other American nations. However, the rulers became more restrictive to avoid the rebelion of the slaves.

According to the above, the complete paragraph would be:

There were several instances during the colonial or Revolutionary Era where enslaved people attempted revolt or fight to their own independence. The first nation where a slave uprising was successful was <u>Haiti</u>.

The <u>rebelion </u>resulted in the creation of brutal slave codes that would not be lifted until after the Civil War.
