Toussaint Louverture's sweeping reforms of both public and private activity help to bring about huge rises in productivity and exports, but his authoritative leadership style inspires rebellions, led by his nephew Moyse.

Toussaint shows no mercy to the rebels and verbally attacks most groups in society, outlining their shortcomings.
