1799–1800 armed conflict in Haiti
The War of the South, not to be confused with the general term knives-war or the War of Knives, was a civil war from June 1799 to July 1800 between the Haitian revolutionary Toussaint Louverture, a black ex-slave who controlled the north of Saint-Domingue, and his adversary André Rigaud, a mixed-race free person of color who controlled the South.
