HELP I HAVE 5 MINUTES TO FINISH THIS How are the effects of the Haitian Revolution still felt today?

Explanation:

During the slave revolts that gradually morphed into a full-blown revolution, most participants in the Haitian Revolution had fairly limited goals: to destroy slavery and bring about a more free society on the island of Saint-Dominique, a French colony in the Caribbean. Beyond these goals, most of the slave forces had few long-term plans for what would come after emancipation.

Some of the leaders in the Haitian Revolution were steeped in Enlightenment philosophy and hoped to model Haiti on the principals of the French and American Revolutions. Unfortunately, many of the most educated and democratically minded of these leaders (most significantly, Toussaint L'Ouverture) died before the revolution found its end. Those that were left ruled the new nation single-handedly, with military might and sometimes cruelly.
