The Dominican Independence War gave the Dominican Republic freedom from Haiti in 1844. Before the war, the whole island of Hispaniola had been united under Haitian rule for a period of 22 years when Haiti occupied the independent state of Spanish Haiti in 1822. After the struggles that were made by Dominican patriots to free the country from Haitian control, they had to withstand and fight against a series of incursions that served to consolidate their independence (1844-1856). After the war Haitian soldiers would make incessant attacks to try to gain back control of the nation, but these efforts were to no avail, as the Dominicans would go on to win every battle.
