Explanation:
6. The American Declaration of Independence asserts that "all men are created equal." Write an essay in which you compare the American Revolution with the Haitian Revolution in light of this statement. Which revolution more fully accomplished the goal of equality? Be sure to include a clear thesis and address the following questions:
• In what ways were the revolutions similar or different?
• How did the idea of equality apply in each case to gender, ethnicity, and/or social class?
• Which revolution resulted in a new state that more completely lived up to the ideal that "all men are created equal"? (10 points)
“All men are created equal.” Comparing the American Revolution and the Haitian Revolution based on this statement alone can seem tough at first glance, because the Declaration of Independence insists that “all men are created equal.” However, the Haitian revolution is known as the most successful slave revolt in history, so which one made a more fair and equal state? Regarding race, class, and gender, which new land was more fair overall?
Starting with the American Revolution, it didn’t start due to inequality. In fact, inequality was scarcely a goal of the revolution. The goal was to secede from Europe and become their own nation, the U.S.A. They revolted due to taxation without representation, and a few years after succeeding, drafted the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration officially recognized the United States as an independent nation, and in it, the line “all men are created equal.” However, for many years to come, women and people of color were treated as inferior and legally had less rights than white males. Not until 1865 was slavery abolished, and not until 1919 were women given equal treatment in America.
In Haiti, or at the time, Saint-Domingue, there existed a class system that ranked from top to bottom of: French plantation owner, Affranchis, and then slave. This system continued on until the slaves and Affranchis heard of the successful revolution in America and revolutions in progress in other French colonies. Enlightenment ideals were also spread to Saint-Domingue, and after a law to grant Affranchis citizenship was vetoed, the Affranchis and the slaves banded together and revolted. A major contributor to this revolution was Toussaint Louverture, who acted very well as a leader for the revolution. With his army of Affranchis and slaves, they drove out the French, and the attacking British and Spanish.
Toussaint now ruled over Haiti, and created a free, multi-racial, constitutional society. French forces did not take lightly to this, and attacked even harder. Toussaint was captured, but the revolutionaries managed to drive out the French once again. Tousaint died, and Haiti remained free. With slavery abolished in Haiti, many white plantation owners fled Haiti, while some stayed. While I wish I could say that Haiti became a free land with equal rights, Haitian ruler Jean-Jacques Dessalines ordered the killings of thousands of white inhabitants, which didn’t end the inequality, it just turned it on it’s head. After the whites were gone, the slaves turned their anger to the Affranchis. Soon there were almost no one but slaves in a free land amidst destroyed crops and property.
Comparing and contrasting them, I think it’s safe to say that the American Revolution resulted in a more fair and equal state. While the Haitian revolution succeeded in freeing many slaves, it collapsed on itself and ended up becoming unequal once more. America took a century or so to grant equality to slaves, and a while longer for women, but it did eventually come. So in conclusion, the American Revolution resulted in a more fair and free state.
I am not a very good writer, I highly recommend you look over and edit this essay as this is a first draft.
How are the boundaries drawn during the Berlin Conference to blame for the political unrest in modern Africa?
Answer:
The Berlin Conference can be best understood as the formalisation of the Scramble for Africa. This British coined the term sometime in 1884, and it has since been used to describe the twenty-plus years when the various European powers explored, divided, conquered and began to exploit virtually the entire African continent. European powers were slow to realise the benefits of claiming land in Africa and had mainly kept to coastal colonies. However in 1884–5 the Scramble for Africa had truly began in earnest when thirteen European countries and the United States met in Berlin to agree to the rules dividing Africa. The outcome of the conference was the General Act of the Berlin Conference.
Prior to the conference, European diplomacy treated African indigenous people in the same manner as they treated New World natives, forming trade realtions with tribal chiefs. This can seen in examples such as the Portuguese trading with the Kingdom of the Kongo. With the exception of the trading posts along the coasts, the continent was essentially ignored. This changed as a result of King Leopold of Belgium’s desire for personal glory and riches and by the mid-19th century, Africa was considered ripe for exploration, trade, and settlement.
In 1876, Belgium’s King Leopold II announced his intent to fund an exploration of the Congo region, and in 1879 Leopold sent Sir Henry Morton Stanley to the area. In the same year, the French began building a railway east from Dakar, hoping to tap potentially huge Sahelian markets. That year France also joined Great Britain in taking financial control of Egypt.
From 1879 to 1885, Stanley went to the Congo as an envoy from Léopold with the secret mission to organise what would become known as the Congo Free State, a mercantile enterprise in the Congo. French intelligence had discovered Leopold’s plans, and France was quick to engage in its own colonial exploration. French naval officer Pierre de Brazza was dispatched to central Africa, traveled into the western Congo basin, and raised the French flag over the newly founded Brazzaville in 1881, in what is currently the Republic of Congo. To add to this, Portugal, had a long history in the are through its trade and treaties with the Kongo Empire in the area through its treaties with the Kongo Empire which in essence became a proxy state of Portugal. It quickly made a treaty with its old ally, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, on 26 February 1884 to block off the Congo Society’s access to the Atlantic.
By the early 1880s European interest in Africa had increased dramatically. Stanley’s charting of the Congo River Basin (1874–77) removed the last bit of terra incognita from European maps of the continent, thereby delineating the rough areas of British, Portuguese, French, and Belgian control. The powers raced to push these rough boundaries to their furthest limits and eliminating any local minor rulers which might prove troublesome to European competitive diplomacy.
France moved to occupy Tunisia, one of the last of the Barbary Pirate states, under the pretext of another Islamic terror and piracy incident. French claims by Pierre de Brazza were quickly solidified with the French taking control of today’s Republic of the Congo in 1881 and also Guinea in 1884. This, in turn, partly convinced Italy to become part of the Triple Alliance, thereby upsetting Germany's Otto van Bismarck’s carefully laid out plans with Italy and forcing Germany to become involved. In 1882, realizing the geopolitical extent of Portuguese control on the coasts, but seeing penetration by France eastward across Central Africa toward Ethiopia, the Nile, and the Suez Canal, Britain saw its vital trade route through Egypt and its Indian Empire threatened.
