Flag of the Second Empire of Haiti An attempt to restore the black and red flag which was made in 1844 failed. In 1847, Faustin Soulouque was elected president and in 1849 he proclaimed himself Emperor under the name of Faustin I, who kept the blue and red band, but changed the coat of arms with his own in representation of his monarch rule.
The white pale removed, the blue was taken to represent Haiti's Black African citizens and the red the gens de couleur. The story is widely known in Haiti: the anniversary of the date is celebrated as the Flag and Universities Day and images of Catherine Flon have appeared on Haitian currency and stamps. [7] [8]
