The History of St. Domang

St. domang that will fall under the control of the french by the late 1690s really begins as kind of like an erstwhile like french pirate colony that eventually becomes formalized as a french colony. Throughout the 1700s you have the slow expansion of different forms of commodity production including tobacco, indigo and sugar. There's estimates of anywhere from 500 to 800 000 slaves who were brought beginning the early 1700s to the on the eve of revolution in 1790 they're bringing like 50 thousands slaves a year.
