*The first wave of French immigrants to arrive in Cuba were fleeing the '''Haitian Revolution''' and the new governmental administration of Haiti after independence was declared. This immigration reached its peak between 1800 and 1809, when more than twenty-seven thousand French of all social classes arrived in the eastern part of Cuba. Many of them emigrated to the city of Santiago de Cuba, which had neither sidewalks nor paved streets, and lacked drinking water, supplies and dwellings for the refugees. | *The first wave of French immigrants to arrive in Cuba were fleeing the '''Haitian Revolution''' and the new governmental administration of Haiti after independence was declared.
