+[[image:Charles_x_king_of_france.jpg|right|thumb|250px|King Charles X of France.]]On '''April 17'''  King Charles X of France recognizes [[Haiti]] in return for the crushing assessment of 150 million francs, payment for the expelled French planters' losses in [[St. Domingue]]/Haiti. This sum represents a multiple of the value of the entire Haitian economy at the time.
 Haiti, under President [[Alexandre Pétion]] is pressured into to paying 150 million gold francs to France as a ''compensation'' for French [[slavery|slave-owners]] for their “financial losses” as a result of the [[abolition]] of slavery in Haiti. In exchange, France agrees to recognize Haiti’s independence, 21 years after [[Jean-Jacques Dessalines]] had freed Haiti from colonial domination and French slavery. The amount will be reduced later to 90 million gold francs, but it will take the Haitian government over 100 years to pay off this debt and it will be French banks that profit immensely from the financing of the payments to France.
@@ Line 8: / Line 8: @@
 The Haitian payments to France cripple the economy, that already had to struggle with a deteriorating sugar and other commodities market and a transition into a post slavery society.
 Currently there are efforts under way to demand re-compensation from France.
