Why do they speak french there?
-- Haiti was like the Cuba of the 1800s. Every nation around them hated them and feared slave rebellions in their own countries. At that time, they doesn’t know how to speak French, they have their own Language- African languages. After a generation of enslavement on the island the younger slaves learn it up.
