The Haitian Revolution was the most successful slave revolt in history. While the history passed that has been, rough. It still affected a lot of minds in the 19th century. So what if the Haitian Revolution failed?

Actually the French revolution did abolish slavery in 1794 (yes, Robespierre also did good stuff). Haiti was even very supportive of the revolution. It's only after Napoleon brought slavery back that the colony proclaimed independence. Then it was definitly abolished by the Second Republic in 1848.

The French revolution is without a doubt one of the most destructive and awful things to have ever happened in human history and its largely because of him and idiots like Marat. He directly caused the deaths of upwards of 40,000 people and possibly more and in very cruel fashion. Frankly the number of deaths you can indirectly attribute to him due to all the extremist thought that the revolution spawned is even more, well into the millions.

Simply for the perceived benefit of black people succeeding is the reason why they shut it down. and things like this been happening throughout the entirety of U.S history. Things like government aid so many white rural folks rely on sometime more than black people but because of the perceived idea that black people benefit from anything they will go against it.

Easy. Slaves were considered a status symbol. It’s actually sad and pathetic to think about these people are, in their own eyes fighting for the only thing separating them from being impoverished. Despite that particular institution being used by rich plantation owners to exploit the poor via price manipulation, and utter market domination. (The plantation class pretty much had a monopoly on the slave market post 1887) It’s the same reason why so many poor people buy expensive phones, jewelry, European cars, cosmetic surgeries etc and are ruined because of their own poor financial decisions. They like having these things because it is a status symbol.

@@thatonejoey1847 Edward I and Edward III made a lot of progress in making English the dominant language in England despite the ruling classes still being able to speak French. I think short term it would allow England to focus it's attention on Scotland as the French historically prevented England from taking Scotland which was one of the reasons why the hundred year war started. Question would be how stable this Angevin Empire on steroids would be. History has proven that it just takes 1 bad ruler to ruin things. A lot would depend on how efficient Henry V would have been in rooting out support for Charles VII. Question would also be how stable the alliance between England and Burgundy would remain of course. In case Henry V and his better heir would have managed to root out the Valois line, I think it would at least be likely the English would have been more interested in European matters instead of turning towards colonialism instead. It would perhaps mean a strong Holy Roman Emperor would have had a better chance of re establishing control over Northern Italy at least as the French would not first consolidate control over Savoy and later make attempts at taking Milan. I find it less likely England would make an attempt to go that far south as they would probably have enough trouble keeping control over the British Isles and their possessions in France.

​​@@forsaken22 The thing with abortion is that it's difficult to say absolutely *when* the fertilized egg becomes a developing fetus and when that fetus actually becomes a person. Under ideal conditions, the question of its allowance would never even come up and nobody would need such. But the ideal conditions would include things like extended, paid maternal, if not parental, leave from work, expanded and reinforced childcare institutions and assistance services, and, should the parent not be able to care for the child(ren) for whatever reason(s), more sponsorship, support, and care for things like orphanages. Hell, an entire realignment of societal pressure away from forcing people to think having children is the be-all-end-all goal of any relationship would be nice. But you types always scream "muh religion/morals", and then refuse to consider the economic and material realities of American childcare. Hell, y'all even get angry when those mothers/fathers-in-need call out for help from any community, and call them weak for being unable to care for a child or say "well maybe you shouldn't have had kids!". Do everything in your power to skirt and avoid responsibility for forcing your morals down other people's throats.

Appreciate the added section on Bolivar, but this video really doesn't get at the significance of the Haitian Revolution. It just kind of assumes that everything around Haiti would happen the same way, and Haiti would go along with the trends, but the Haitian Revolution had some big international impacts; there's a pretty good chance that if the Haitian Revolution failed, slavery would have remained common in the Caribbean much later into the 19th century (maybe even later), and that the Spanish-American War would never have happened, significantly changing the course of 20th century history. it wasn't just the US South that developed a massive fear of slave revolts and white genocide after the Haitian Revolution, that rhetoric was circulating through European slaveholding powers as well. And where in the Southern US, where slaves made up a large minority overall and a majority in some areas, the response was to claim abolition would lead to white genocide and to double-down on slavery, in European powers, where the vast majority of the slavery was done in distant colonies, it ended up benefitting the abolitionist cause; they already had the carrot of "freedom is a universal right and slavery is immoral," the Haitian Revolution gave them the stick of "if we continue holding slaves sooner or later the slaves will rise up, kill all our colonists, and we'll lose our colonies." No Haitian Revolution doesn't just impact Haiti, it impacts the entire abolitionist movement; if they didn't lose their biggest sugar producing colony, chances are France would continue to use slavery in Haiti for as long as they could, and it would retain slavery into the 1880s like Cuba and Brazil in our timeline (that is, assuming no successful Haitian Revolution later on in the 19th century). The British Empire might abolish slavery in the 1860s like the Dutch did in our timeline, or they might keep it even longer, since the French retaining slavery would keep slavery competitive in the Caribbean. Good chance that also ripples out into European-African interactions being way different (European countries might have continued participating in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade for longer, and while self-sustaining slave populations still probably would have slowed it down, there's a good chance that a less successful abolitionist movement would result in less active anti-slave trade measures, resulting in a longer term small-scale TAST, as well as a different course for colonialism in Africa). And Cuban history could be wildly different; in our timeline, Cuba had a similar response to the Confederacy, where the fear of becoming "another Haiti" caused the white planters to double-down on slavery. The Haitian Revolution also resulted in Cuba becoming the biggest sugar producer in the Caribbean, which made slavery more profitable for them. When Spain abolished slavery in 1811, the Cubans just straight up refused to listen, and kept slavery for most of the 19th century. There was a very strong rhetoric that Revolution against Spain in Cuba would mean the creation of a Black Republic like Haiti, and the Cuban elite leveraged several abolitionist uprisings (directly inspired by the Haitian Revolution) to get more autonomy within the Spanish Empire (hence how they were able to get away with ignoring the Spanish abolition of slavery). That's a big part of the reason Cuba remained a Spanish colony so long after most of the other colonies in the Americas had become independent. If there were no Haitian Revolution, there's a good chance that Cuba would have had a revolution like the other Spanish colonies (maybe even one motivated by Spanish attempts to abolish slavery, kinda like the US Civil War). And if Cuba were independent... No USS Maine, no Spanish-American War, and that would significantly impact how early 20th century US history went, probably rippling out into a very different course for US participation in WWII. And at that point we're into butterfly effect territory where we can't reasonably predict what else would happen, but needless to say the effects of Cuban independence would be significant, and that would pretty directly flow out of the Haitian Revolution failing (Ana Ferrer has two great books that talk about the influence of the Haitian Revolution on Cuba called Insurgent Cuba and Freedom's Mirror, if anyone id interested). So yeah in conclusion "basically everything would have ended up pretty much the same" is a really boring and not particularly plausible direction to take this scenario, the Haitian Revolution was a pretty important event for 19th Century Atlantic history.

I was surprised there was only one mention of the Dominican Republic despite them being neighbors and having a... complicated relationship. Edit: I should add that it's theorized that the Haitian Revolution and its population pre-revolution (overwhelmingly black) were one of the reasons that the U.S. abolished the transatlantic slave trade in 1807.

@@mooncat4376 I'll note in response to your edit that the Northern States already wanted to abolish the TAST during the Constitutional Convention in 1787, and agreed to protect it for a grace period of 20 years as a compromise, so the fact that it was abolished in 1807 is probably just because that was the first year politicians could act on the longer-standing desire to end it (though it's not impossible that the Haitian Revolution was a factor).

Can we get a scenario where the Turks lost the Turkish war of independence? I feel there’s some interesting things to talk about like Italian Anatolia, Greek Smyrna and potentially even getting Istanbul back later on, an American occupied Armenia, and possibly an independent Kurdish state. Obviously I’m sure I’m wrong on some things but it’ll be an exciting scenario to see imo

Depends on when the Turks lose the war. Do they lose before or right after the Treaty of Sevres? Do they lose after the Italians and French bail? What about before or after Armenia is conquered by the Bolsheviks? There's a lot of ways such a scenario could go, depending on how exactly Ataturk's gamble fails.

VIDEO IDEA: In the USSR in 1977, Brezhnev renewed the Soviet Constitution. A question being considered at the time was whether or not to dissolve the Union republics and centralize them under the RSFSR. What would have happened had they decided to deconstruct ethnofederalism in the USSR in 1977?
@jacobpaquette5032
@jacobpaquette5032 Жыл бұрын
This question was also considered and hotly debated at the time of the USSRs founding, with Lenin being essentially the dominant force to push national self-determination and the right to succession in the Soviet Constitution and state structure, while most other Bolsheviks at the time (including Stalin) believed that the incorporation of the borderlands under the administrative unit of the RSFSR was the better solution. You might be able to look at this frame of history as well to come to even more wild chains of alternative events.

But this timeline, I imagine Napoleon could sell it specifically after retreating from Moscow although the US was already spending money on fighting Britain.

I highly recommend listening to age of Napoleon’s podcast on Haiti and louverture, there’s a few misconceptions you’re glossing over here: - when the massacres of whites happened: this was actually after Touissant was capture by the Napoleonic expedition. The preceding revolutions to free the slaves from Haiti during the jacobin regime was made in France and by the white governor of the island. In fact, many of Touissant’s mentors and closest friends were white lawyers and ex- Burgundian nobles. The former would send his children to learn under Touissant, and the latter would have a friendship so deep that their letters would use the term “pure friendship” when describing each other - the media portrayals you’re using and seeing in most image searches are actual propaganda images made by the Big Whites, the plantation owners who fled the island or loss possessions during the Jacobin phase and used their remaining wealth and connections to propagate the slave liberation as a race war. So more often than not, the images and French pamphlets people use to describe Haiti is basically the 18th century version of PragerU -when the whites were massacred in the much later phase of the revolution(again, this is Napoleons time versus the jacobins), many of the citizens refused to cooperate and the Haitian leaders had to use the army to force compliance - out of all the leaders venerated during the Napoleonic era, Touissant stands out as a truly face to face, “know the people” and rule from the road sort of leader. His skill as a horseman was unmatched, and combined with his experience dealing with whites, mixed race, and black populations, he was an effective politician who rode ahead of his own guard to meet with people on a personal level. For a land where a few years ago most people’s experience of governance came in the form of a whip, it was truly a remarkable achievement to have the leader of the land come talk to you in person by himself

Maybe Panama, instead of independence, becomes a colony of the US like PR did, or it could drag out a war with the US over independence. Congress was divided over Cuba, adding that to the mix would be interesting.

(depending on which historican you ask) another impact of a failed haitian revolution would be Britain taking longer to abolish the slave trade. MP's blaimed the revolution on imported slaves rather than those who were born into enslavement and used this as a reason to end the slave trade. The Haitian revolution also stood in direct confrontation to the ideas behined slavery as Britian eventually did have diplomatic relations with the country. There are also other impacts it had as well but its jsut interesting to think about.

If the Haitian Revolution failed, I can see three possibilities. •Saint-Domingue is taken by the Spanish (as Quebec was taken by the British) and is merged with Santo Domingo. Then in 1869, Santo Domingo is annexed by President Grant. •Louisiana goes back to Spain and is reabsorbed by New Spain, which will become Mexico. American settlers will move into Louisiana and Oregon, while California and Texas remain a part of Mexico. With most of its territory intact, Mexico could be a true rival power to the US in the Western Hemisphere. •If the Texas Revolution or Bear Flag Revolt still take place (as there were multiple rebellions against the Centralist Republic of Mexico), they would be significantly different from what we know. If independent, Texas and California would be Latin American republics. There may also be an independent Yucatan and Republic of the Rio Grande.

And as many of the comments said our fight for freedom is very inspirational but we know what is the current situation it was a brutal fight we won but we suffered ever sinced. For your information we still consider Dessalines as a hero of the Independance but we had to kill him 2 years after because he was a violent and bloodthursty leader. Yes the slaves masacred most withes and those who associated with the French empire but they did spare some exemple there was a Polish expeditionary force when they came and learned that they would be doing the same thing that the europeans did to them they fought with and stayed and still have descendents. And for Bolivar as promise to Haïti he freed the slaves of Venezuela and give their flag an hommage to us the Blue and Red under the Yellow.

Basically this a "forgotten" crusade that happened inbetween the 1st and 2nd crusade, despite it being bigger than the 1st and had many people who either fled the 1st or were riding the high of it. But Arslan basically wiped out the whole crusade in 3 one sided slaughters that crushed the spirit of many europeans to crusade for quite awhile. It was the biggest crusade ever aside from the 3rd, yet nobody talks about it because it never even got to its destination.

It's worth mentioning that due to Haiti winning its independence that Napoleon gave up on the Louisiana territory which he promptly sold to the US, he needed Haiti as to give himself a port in the America's, that and for the wealth the slave Plantation produced, prior to the Revolution it was the most profitable European colony, he planned on using its revenue to kick start the colonisation of the Louisiana Territory, which has a whole lot of implications.
