1860 CE

Soulouque, as Faustin I of Haiti, establishes an elaborate court and institutes extremely repressive rule.

Failing in his several attempts to conquer neighboring Santo Domingo, he is finally deposed in 1859-60 in a bloody revolt fomented mainly by the mulattoes who had backed him, and whom he had subsequently turned against.

One of his generals, Fabre-Nicholas Geffrard, leads the revolt.
