The Haitian people eventually gained independence from France and became the first nation established by former slaves as a result of their struggle. The excesses of that despicable treatment were the very reason for the success of the Haitian Revolution: the treatment of slaves and Mulattoes in Haiti was so terrible that it prompted the most violent and eventually victorious slave insurgency in history. The Haitian Revolution was the first and only slave rebellion that resulted in the creation of a free state governed by non-whites and former slaves, free of slavery. This achievement needs to be remembered as one of history's major transformations in today's culture.
