Answer:
Saint-Domingue (Haiti) was prosperous because of revenue earned from sugar.
Explanation:
When the Europeans came to Haiti, the native people lived in a simple way and were relatively isolated from their surroundings, let alone the world. The Europeans though thought that this place has big potential, especially in farming. What the Europeans had on mind was to create large plantations with sugar cane, thus produce sugar and make a profit out of it.
While the Europeans were not many in number, and the native population was decimated, a lot of African slaves were brought as a labor force for the plantations. The wet tropical climate enabled high-scale production of sugar cane, and with sugar becoming increasingly popular and being paid well for, the Europeans earned a lot from the trade. Haiti actually became a very prosperous island, and that was strictly down to the production of sugar cane and sugar from it.
The correct answer is - temperate deciduous forest.
The temperate deciduous forests are forests that are found in the mid-latitudes. These trees in these forests shed their leafs during the late autumn, and grow them again in the spring. They exist in regions where there's four clearly defined seasons.
The canopies of these forests do not stop all the light, but instead, some of the light riches the surface, while in the colder period the light has no obstacle to reach the surface. The soil is deep and fertile, which is the result of the shedding of leafs in most part, and the vegetation is nicely diversified, where there's numerous plants occupying certain height of the forest. The animals are also relatively abundant, and they are well adapted to both very cold and very warm climates.
