Gonaïves, Haiti: a city of independence with a historical imprint
Gonaïves, a major city in northwestern Haiti and the capital of the Artibonite Department, is known as the "City of Haitian Independence", where Haiti signed the Declaration of Independence on January 1, 1804, becoming the world's first black republic. Located on the shores of the Gulf of Gonaïves, the city is the agricultural center of Haiti, producing sugar cane, coffee, mangoes and other crops, and has a busy port. Historically, Gonaïves has experienced many hurricanes and earthquakes, such as the 2004 hurricane that led to severe flooding and the 2010 earthquake that affected the city. Despite the challenges of natural disasters, the local population has remained resilient, and the city has retained its colonial architecture and relics of the independence movement, making it one of the symbols of Haiti's history and culture.
