The name "Haiti" has its roots in the indigenous Taíno language. The Taíno people referred to the land as "Ayiti," meaning "land of high mountains" in their language, which was a reference to the rugged terrain of the island.
The name "Haiti" was officially adopted when the country declared independence from France on January 1st, 1804. It was chosen to honor the indigenous Taíno people and their language. This event marked a significant turning point in world history, symbolizing the end of slavery and the beginning of a new era of self-determination for formerly enslaved people on the island. Haiti's history is deeply intertwined with the fight for freedom and the abolition of slavery, making it a symbol of resilience and the pursuit of liberty.
