Less than 80 kilometres separate Haiti from Cuba. In Haiti in 1804, a large group of black men staged the most successful slave uprising in history. In Cuba in 1959, a small group of white men staged a coup that led to communist rule. The black descendants of the freed slaves still rule Haiti. The white communists still rule Cuba. Both countries are in an awful mess. They are probably the two poorest countries in the Caribbean. It is interesting to look at their histories and wonder what went wrong in each case.
