Respuesta :

In 1804, Haiti became the first Latin American nation to gain independence, following a violent slave revolt led by Toussaint L'ouverture on the French colony of Saint-Domingue. The victors abolished slavery. Haitian independence inspired independence movements in Spanish America.

Answer:

The liberals were typically wealthy urban intellectuals who favored a democratic republic with a limited role for the Church. Increased education and individual freedoms were high priorities for this group. The conservatives were rural landowners who favored strong central governments with little popular representation. Maintaining current land ownership was a high priority for this group.
