On 27 February 1844, Dominican independence was proclaimed, ending the 1822 political union with Haiti. The break followed years of political and social conflict, including disputes over centralization, land, language, taxation, and representation. It did not restore slavery: the abolition introduced in 1822 remained in force, including through the later Spanish annexation of the Dominican Republic. This distinction separates the end of a shared state from the fate of the formerly enslaved population.
