Banished him from Haiti
Answer
In 1794, the French abolished slavery in their colonies, which was a major victory for Toussaint Louverture and the other leaders of the Haitian Revolution. At the time, slavery was still legal in most of the world, and the French were one of the first countries to abolish it. This move greatly increased Louverture's support among the Haitian people, and it helped to ensure that the revolution would be successful.
