Haiti’s teenage prince is bayoneted at Sans-Souci and the northern kingdom ends

Haitian

Jacques-Victor Henry, born 3 March 1804, was heir to the Kingdom of Haiti. His father Henri Christophe shot himself on 8 October 1820. The boy should have been proclaimed Henri II but never acceded: ten days later, on 18 October, revolutionaries bayoneted him at the Sans-Souci palace.
