In the 1700’s what is now Haiti was called the “Jewel of the Caribbean,” and supplied about 40% of the world’s sugar. In 1791 the government of France passed legislation to phase out slavery in its Caribbean colonies and grant the former Negro slaves citizenship. Rather than becoming citizens, Haiti’s Negro population mass murdered all whites and Mulattoes who could not flee the Island in time.
In 1804 only full blooded Negros remained and Haiti became the first Negro ruled nation. www.floort.com...

A whole continent is difficult to `sum up`. Each country with its unique culture history and heritage .
One cannot ignore the indigenous population experiences with former colonial overlords . If ever a continent needed therapy Africa is it.
Some of the atrocities are mind boggling in scale frequency and duration . All of this just can`t be sweep aside .
The colonial masters may no longer reside in Africa .... but there is still a potent influence .

I am glad you at least looked into the Haiti Dominican Republic comparison. Let us keep in mind that when the blacks took over Haiti it was a paradise.
