Before being the 5th president of Haiti, Jean-Louis Michel Pierrot, fought under the command of Henri Christophe who crowned himself president for life of the State of Haiti (1807-1811), then had himself crowned King Henry I by the archbishop of Milot, and ruled the Kingdom of Haiti (1811-1820). Jean-Louis Michel Pierrot led a black battalion at the Battle of Vertières in 1803.Hence, he was instrumental in the last decisive Battle of the Haitian Revolution. Historians are unsure about his birth day, but he was born into slavery in 1761 in Acul-du-Nord, and was illiterate. When Christophe created a nobility in the North, he made Pierrot a prince.
