Santo Domingo.– Today is Restoration Day in the Dominican Republic. On this day in 1863, Dominicans started a war against the Spanish colonial army under the leadership of Ulises Heureaux (Lilis), who later became a three-time president of the country.
Army generals Gaspar Polanco, Jose Contreras, and Gregorio Luperon,
among others, led the Dominican forces in the battles that put an end
to Spain’s annexation of the country.

Only because we Dominicans wanted this since the USA turned us down. So being true to form [children’s brains in adult bodies] even we, Dominicans know that we are incapable of running our country. It is a shame because this is such a beautiful country. Unfortunately, there are Dominicans living here. Look how they are ruining Spain and NYC and do not listen to Ferjotonez spreading his Lies.

This is not correct BASTA in any form..the Restoration was during the American civil war and the USA had no time for a diversion,Several years earlier , Santana had signed a pact with Spain for the return of their colonial rule ..he did this allegedly for protection against another war with Haiti. However , the generals listed above , opposed the pact and so declared war on Spain ...and to an extent were assisted by Haiti who did not want to see Spain here. in the next decade the USA senate refused to annex the DR .
Your remarks about Dominicans are insulting ..for the most part they are very happy , non materialistic people who live their reasonably poor lives in a very natural way .The problem is in that they have little regard for authority and this can cause problems ...and when someone has authority , the lack of education and maturity sees this authority abused ,,,so many wonderful Dominicans but some bad apples

you hit the nail in the head. Santana return DR to it colonial status because of the 18 year war with Haiti,,,,
WARS +18 year of it = no money in the treasury...what santana did what a desperate decision, but at the end even the Haitian did not wanted Spain in santo domingo, cause Spain wanted the old border from the Aranjue treaty of 1777, which include the great plateu of Haiti, which today include the departament of Centre, Nord, Antibonite and Nord Est
We gave all that out for border security and now they are at our door step again.

BASTA is not Dominican, he's another haitian with identity problems, he try hard to be like us, but his love/hate DR routine give him away all the time.
Try to read between the lines in all his post and you'll learn not to waste your time responding to his frustrated nonsense.
From: Dominican Republic
1801, 1805, 1822, 1845, 1849, and 1855 (and the threat of another invasion in 1859 by Soulouque) forced Santana and others to seek help from the motherland!
The first thing Spain did was to recover Dajabon and Capotillo to DR form the hands of the Haitian. In 1961, under Royal order # 14, Spanish forces were going to return to DR the Dominican towns of San Rafael, San Miguel de la Atalaya, Hincha, and La Caobas BUT LUPERON AND HEREAUX, WITH ASSISTANCE FROM HAITI, STOP THE SPANIARDS FROM RESTORING DR TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LIMITS SET BY THE ARANJUEZ TREATY OF 1777!
All we are celebrating is the "Restoration of the Haitian imperialism" of conquering DR in 1865! Let today's conditions (2 E6 Haitian in DR) is a consequence of 1865 and 1961!
Any Dominican who celebrate this is A HAITIAN! The hell with the Haitian and their offsprings!

From: Dominican Republic, vieja Santo Domingo
Allumeuse generoso ,,the history is almost right but the rest is sheer lunacy and totally incorrect ..the last time Haiti tried to invade this country was in 1856 and after that date there were Spaniards here and the war of restoration which was started in Santiago against the Spanish was to restore independence to the DR...the haitian imperialism as you call was for 22 years much earlier and never after 16 august ,1863, the day we are celebrating today . The wars and skirmishes with Haiti were before your father was born and maybe even your grandfather ..too long ago for you to bear your hatred of our neighbours
From: Dominican Republic
Ricardolito read "Manual de Historia Dominicana" Frank Moya Pons, 13rd Edition, Caribbean Publishers, 2002, pages 333 and after. Do you know why Geffrard overthrew Soulouque in 11/1859? Do you know that Soulouque prepared an invading army in 10/1859?
Do you know why Geffrad tried to commercially annex the Dominican border towns? Why the American brought Haitian to Dominican sugar fields? Why Trujillo did 1937?
Haiti's change of tactics (from rude invasion to commercial annexation to flooding DR with immigrants) still feed Haiti desires to snatch the whole island. Haiti has never accepted DR independence.
Just because it happened before my father epoch will not change the past and today's circumstances of Haiti into DR strategy! Your explanations are flawed! You are arguing against written history!
Etienn PROVE ME WRONG! Who held Dajabon and Capotillo in 1859? Answer Haitian excrement!
From: Dominican Republic
Haiti is not a race! Therefore, racism is irrelevant! Haiti is a nationality! Haiti has militarily invaded DR 6 times!!!! Haiti then tried to annex the Dominican border areas commercially and Trujillo exposed them!!! Haiti now dumped 2 million of its people in DR and we, the biggest suckers to Democracy-human rights-compassion-pacifism-socialists, are allowing the Haitian to get political power within DR and they will implode DR by turning DR into a satellite of the bastards of the west!
We must use force and kick the foreigners out! Now!
Haiti has tried the following against DR:
1-Rude military invasions (1801, 1805, 1822, 1845, 1849, and 1855)
2-Commercial annexation of Dominican border towns (after 1865)
3-Aiding and fueling coup d'etat and political overthrow in DR (1865 - 1899)
4-Inundated DR with 2 million Haitian (1985 to 2009)
What would DR look like if Haiti have never invaded or interfered in DR since the 1800's?
From: Dominican Republic
Haiti aid to political/military revolts in DR after 1863!
4/1863 Geffrard provided weapons and monetary assistance to the restoration of DR (they feared Spanish reconquering part of Haiti)
7/1867 Salnave provided military/financial assitant to the baecitas to overthrow Cabral in DR
5/1880 Salomon provided financial aid to the baecitas to overthrow the azules of Luperon
10/1898 Heureaux secretly sold the towns of San Rafael, San Miguel de la Atalaya, Hinchas y Las Caobas to Haiti. These towns were illegaly occupied by the haitians in 1801.
7/1888 Hippolyte supported Casimiro Moya to overthrow Heureaux
From: Dominican Republic
Continued: (more evidence that Haiti kept intervening into DR's affairs after 1865!). What would DR looked like if Haiti did not bother us from 1801 to 1890?
3/1894 Hippolyte financed Luperon to overthrow Heureaux
7/1914 Oreste Zamor supported the Horacistas, Jimenistas and Vidalistas to overthrow Bordas in RD
10/1937 Trujillo conducted an ethnic cleansing of Dajabon from the illegal haitians
4/1963 The Dominican diplomatic mission in Port of Pig was attacked by wild pigs. This prompted Bosch to send the DOminican army to the border.

The idea of Restoration of our independence is definitely based on Duarte's principles of having a Free Country, independent of all foreign powers. This was a fight between and "Dominicans" (citizens of Spain) and free "Dominicans" (from the Eastern part of the Island of Santo Domingo). The Dominicans from the Western part of the island didn't play an important part on this struggle.
The end-result of this fight, that was won because of the presence of Duarte in the Country, giving confidence to the People to defeat the Spaniards, was the establishment of a new identity, a national and own identity for the people of the Eastern part of the Island of Santo Domingo. That national identity is still off the books. The name that those patriots fought for was Quisqueya and only our National Anthem survived caudillos and tyrants until now. It is time for the People to claim our National Identity and the name of our country. Quisqueyans and Haitians are Dominicans by region (island).
From: Dominican Republic
COnstitucion, Spain was asked to come over and take the helm (Spain did not reconquered DR by force). And Spain did what they were asked to do. Recover Capotillo and Dajabon from Haiti. Then we, the prohaitian, stop Spain from giving us our land taken from us in 1801! But at least the Spaniards stop the "PIGS" dead cold! After 1860, Port of Pigs held their boars at bay!
Etien, Haiti is not a race is a nationality and there are 2 million Haitian excrement in DR! GET OUT OF MY COUNTRY OR WITNESS YOUR CUT INTESTINE!

Many Dominicans lost their former fear and within a few months the frontier trade grew to an unusual intensity. According to the Dominicans, Geffrard wished to use this trade to "Haitianize" the frontier economy in order to increase Haitian penetration and domination in these areas in a peaceful and gradual manner. In May, 1860, the minister of finance and commerce reported that this frontier trade had acquired colossal proportions and that the people of Azua were alarmed at the rate at which the frontier inhabitants were becoming Haitianized.
Some of his followers also maintained contact with the Haitians, whom they urged to invade the Republic in order to oust Santana.One of the main participants in the frontier trade with Haiti was Baez's cousin, General Valentin Ramirez Baez, who was very influential in the border areas. This alliance between Baecistas and the Haitians greatly worried the government.

Respect is not a gift it must be earned.
There is a Haitian proverb that goes" if your own family does not want to sell you,strangers can not buy you.
Whose fault it is that Haitian is poor and most Haitians are living in abject misery?
If you read all the comments posted here ,some blattantly sick, racist , vulgar and inhuman, it is made very clear that they do not want Haitians in the DR.
They do not want Haitians to crowd their hospitals, wandering dirty in their neighborhoods,attacking and killing Dominicans,chopping up their trees to make charcoal and so in so forth.
They want you to go back home,
