  • The Republic of Havana was founded on the 16th of November 1798, following the Cuban Revolution. It was founded by Nicolás Morales, a free negro, who was disgruntled by the Spanish slavery laws, led the successful revolution against them between 1795 and 1798.

The republic was one of the first nations to ban slavery outright, and it gained a lot of notoriety in the USA by slave owners, with some diplomats from the south wanting a full invasion of the island. The nation grew closer and closer to the Kingdom of Florida over time, due to them being almost identical in the abolition of slavery and the overthrow the Spanish and their democratic laws. By 1801, the two nations drafted the "Union Act of 1801", which it stated the two nations shall join together under the form of a republican system similar to the one found in the United States. The act was finally signed by Nicolás Morales, president of Havana, and with the act, came the new nation under the name, the Republic of Cuba.
