Wikipedia contributors, Haitian independence debt (Wikipedia) link
Consulted for the text of the Royal Ordinance of Charles X, King of France, dated 17 April 1825, recognising Haitian independence in exchange for a 150-million-franc indemnity to former French colonists, since a direct fetch of the ordinance's own text was not available. Also consulted for the 1838 reduction of the indemnity to 90 million francs and payments continuing until 1947.
