Abstract

In 1789, there were three social groups in French Saint-Domingue that played a leading role in the most important events that would take place until the founding of the Haitian State on January 1, 1804. The one at the top of the social pyramid was made up of the “Great Whites”. These were owners of cotton, coffee, cane, cocoa and indigo plantations, as well as high officials of the colonial administration, importers, exporters and wealthy merchants. They numbered about forty thousand, approximately.
