Haiti’s history is a story of occupation, oppression, forced labour for the benefit of wealthier countries, and political unrest. Discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1492 and held by the Spanish for several centuries, the indigenous people (known as Taino) of the island were obliterated in less than a generation. In the 17th century, France established a presence on Hispaniola (as the island was known), and in 1697, the western third of the island was declared French.
