Those French bank "loans" Haiti's citizens were forced to shoulder in 1825 came with " hefty interest rates." From 1825 to 1947, "Haiti paid French slaveholders & their descendants the equivalent of between $20 & $30 billion."
Think of the billions stolen from black Haitian children & delivered to slavers' great-grandchildren.
Again, vs.: England's prompt & full recognition of American independence in 1783 Treaty of Paris, as well as a vast land grant that doubled the size of the new nation.
