John Locke’s ideas of natural rights and self-rule primarily influenced the uprising in the French colony of Saint-Domingue. Locke's philosophy emphasized the rights of individuals to life, liberty, and property, which inspired revolutionary movements seeking self-governance and rights against oppressive systems. The Haitian Revolution (which took place in Saint-Domingue) was driven by demands for freedom and equality, aligning closely with Locke's principles.
