    Explanation:

    These facts really happened in Haiti. However, although the country is located in the Caribbean, it was a French colony from 1493. Due to the fertile soil and good location of the island, within a few decades Haiti became the richest colony of the Empire of France. Planting sugar, cocoa and also coffee (3 products that could not be grown in Europe) France and the colonial inhabitants of the island made a lot of money.
