What if France never forces absurd punitive reparations on Haiti for its slave revolution? Haiti would still have lots of troubles and posible develop a cashcrop monoculture like other caribbean nations but its less likely to devastate their forests and nature and by extension the only economical asset they have. Even if Haiti still becomes the poorest country in America anyway, it's poverty would be more in line with central america and the rest of the Caribbean.
Now how could we stop France revenge? Longer napoleonic wars? Deportation of the white elite rather than elimination?
