After more than 200 years of independence you can’t blame colonialism, racism, France, us, un anymore for your own failing and corruption. Countries like Poland Vietnam and the Baltic states all had a harder history than Haiti and they recovered
Only communism can save Haiti.
A country whose name starts with Hait.
Too much gazing at the past and not enough working for the future.
1804 they declare an emperor not a republic . And tht was the main problem not rasism thing 😂😂😂😂
Colonial powers devoured the world with their insatiable greed.
Bad rullers never emerge spontanously, they are never the expression of national culture. They are always the most convinient solution, the instrument, for land and capital holders and Western governments.
USA destroyed alot of countries, still doing also the French . Now USA take Argentina.
DW stand for DER WOKE😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Some play checkers some play chess
Dominican Republic. Do your frikin homework. Compare and contrast.
Did she really blame the international community for giving money to NGOs
“The first successful slave revolt” 😂😂 what a joke like no one ever heard of Spartacus 😂
Maybe one of the worst DW Documentaries due to biased informations.
DW reporting being more left wing than honest, again
Wasn’t the first republic but it was an empire. An empire of liberty
It is sad whats happening to Haiti, but I feel like DW is pushing an agenda on us! The reason why the gangs have taken the country over, it is because Haitian's bad and corrupted politicians.
Voodoo is the reason for its current state of affairs.
I mean it did take haiti 100 years to fully pay of france 1947. They also owed the US who came and took was was owned using marines. This report was VERY biased it did not include the civil war either
So the revolution made things worse since nobody wanted to do business with them. They had to pay France millions of dollars. Sounds like failed revolution.
While this island was the richest of all the Caribbean, political violence, corruption, nepotism killed all economic development.
People make places, not land. I hope people will accept the great gift from the Lord: 10 commandments.
People who lack social science literacy still have a hard time understanding how history shapes the present. Its like their brains turn off and seriously believe that the present is just the present and the past has nothing to do with it, even if the facts are clear and the evidence is overwhelming. Haiti's neighbors are successful because of a chain of events dating back in history. Haiti is unsuccessful because of a chain of events that led to the deep social issues they have now. And there's definitely a lot of historic social injustice as is the case in most parts of the global south. You really don't need a PhD in anthropology to figure this out, get a grip!
A short while ago Canada gave Haiti $160 MILLION. It wasn't long after that a revolt broke out in Haiiti. So giving money to Haiti gives gangs motivation to overthrow the government.
Then the gangs have lots of money with which to buy guns or whatever.
I don't how or if Haiti will ever become normal.
This piece is as bad as any of your reporting on the Middle East. Shame on you.
DW is a joke
Oh please😂 Haiti is a corrupt country that screwed itself. It has nothing to do with "you know racism."
security comes from within – no outside help needed. A little bit of trust of themselves goes a long way.

Haitian Republic ..
Wherever the french went they left war torn nations with militias
Who exactly is "the world "?
The first free Banana Republic, threw off French oppression and then started oppressing themselves even better, unable to rise above Haiti's hatreds and chaos. Sigh….
You talk over the genocide of the Taino people as if it is not fundamental to what occurred on their land . Columbus invaded Ayiti the home and country of the Taino people .
Great video DW.
We need more documentaries like this👏🏾👏🏾
The Europeans in this comment section that don’t want to acknowledge their wrongdoing in history it’s crazy. It’s pathetic. Europe and the United States Haiti we all know it. Take accountability.
How can you so Haiti is the world's first Republic?
Dont claim yourself "the world"
Why the Georgia (Sakartvelo) has Ruzzian occupied territories split with borders? DW are you supporting Ruzzia?
I didn't understand how serious the problem in Haiti was, until China began to criticise Haitian government, together with US. (Feb 2021).
I feel bad for Haiti.
The debt was to prevent France from recapturing the colony. The debt didn't turn Haiti into what it is today, as you touch on briefly, it was poor governance. If Haiti had more money, those in charge simply would have stolen more, and Haiti would be in the same situation it is now.
Where is the first White republik?
