80,000 French Troops vs Enslaved Fighters | Haiti Won

Описание: In 1803, Napoleon Bonaparte sold the Louisiana Territory—a massive chunk of North America—to the US for pennies. Why? Because he had just lost his finest army on a small island in the Caribbean.
History books often gloss over the "Leclerc Expedition" of 1802. They call it a "failure." In reality, it was a catastrophe. France sent 80,000 troops—veterans of the European wars—to crush the Haitian Revolution. Only 3,000 returned.
In this 30-minute Originex Deep Dive, we expose the military disaster that broke France’s American dreams:
• The Strategy: How Toussaint Louverture and Dessalines weaponized "Yellow Fever" and scorched-earth tactics against a superior force.
• The Battle: The siege of Crête-à-Pierrot, where formerly enslaved men outfought the conquerors of Italy.
• The Heist: The 1825 "Indemnity" where France forced Haiti to pay $21 billion (adjusted) for the "crime" of winning the war.
