Port-au-Prince (1770–1915)

1770–1915 — Port-au-Prince became the colonial capital in 1770. Under the name Port-Républicain, it hosted the assembly that adopted Toussaint’s constitution on 9 May 1801. Here, too, President Boyer accepted France’s indemnity under Mackau’s guns in July 1825. In December 1914 US Marines removed the national bank’s gold.
