I would say that President Thomas Jefferson would have desired the revolution to fail. On the one had, Saint Domingue independence from France was good news, for it debilitated the French. But on the other hand, the triumph of a slave revolution in the West Indies would set a dangerous precedent and could influence further slave revolts in the USA.

Jefferson - who was a slave owner himself - refused to recognize the negro government, rejecting diplomatic relations and even imposed an economic embargo on Saint Domingue in order to make the negro nation fail. Also, he had to face southern slave-holders reaction against the Saint Domingue in fear of similar outbreaks. Previous incidents like the Gabriel slave conspiracy in 1802 fueled this fear.

Time changes one hour for every 20° of latitude. True false
kolezko [41]

That is "False".

You have to divide the distinction (estimated in degrees) by 15 since there are 15 degrees in every hour. This will give you the distinction in time between the two areas. So on the off chance that you recognize what time it is in one area, and the longitude of another area, at that point simply basic expansion or subtraction issue will give you the time in an alternate time zone.
