Check out that 58,000 French troops sent by Napoleon. He was very busy at the time and even sold off 1/3 of the North America to the U.S. to finance his Euro adventures.
And "international community" in 1804? In the Caribbean.
It was a very successful slave revolt against few Euros by a huge population of slaves (largest in the Americas at that time) and taken over by a shipwrecked mulatto from Grenada — Roi Christophe, a genius, and the real story.
