Scattered unrest and isolated confrontations between Haitians …
Years: 1828 - 1839
Scattered unrest and isolated confrontations between Haitians and Dominicans soon begins; by 1838 significant organized movements against Haitian domination have formed.
The most important is led by Juan Pablo Duarte of a prominent Santo Domingo family who has returned from seven years of study in Europe to find his father's business had been ruined under Haitian occupation.
Unlike many of the country's subsequent caudillo rulers, Duarte is an idealist, an ascetic, and a genuine nationalist.
Although he plays no significant part in its rule, he is considered the father of his country.
He certainly provides the inspiration and impetus for achieving independence from Haiti.
