Toussaint L'Ouverture was a French general, but instead for France, he fought for Haiti and its people, leading the Haitian Revolution against the French. Under L'Ouverture, the Haitians got much better organized. He was a military general, so he was very smart in warfare, tactically strong, and knew the weaknesses of the French troops. This led to him being able to lead the Haitians to successful battles for freedom, but also to wisely retreat them when the situation was not suitable for them and save their lives. He was the most important person when it came to the gaining of independence of Haiti, and rightfully so he is considered the father of this nation.
Heritage day, as its name states, celebrates heritage (obviously). The reason that "closes gaps" from the past is because it celebrates culture that was suppressed in the past, and it promotes diversity and unity that was previously discouraged or prosecuted.
Answer:
4.) France and Great Britain
Explanation:
France and the British Empire were colonial superpowers for more then 400 years. They managed to conquer and control enormous amounts of territory across the planet. One of the continents that they managed to colonize was Africa. There were other countries that had their colonies in Africa too, but these two countries were by far superior. Because they were able to conquer most of the continent, these two European countries managed to make lot of wealth from the natural resources of Africa, as well as its labor force. Also, apart from having benefit, they contributed to the cultural landscape of Africa, with the English and French languages, as well as multiple other cultural traits, such as their religion, became widespread across the continent.
There was no other reason for the Intolerable Acts other than to punish the colonists for what they were already doing.
