Q39194




The Spanish reconquest of Santo Domingo was a successful revolt against French rule in the Captaincy General of Santo Domingo which lasted from November 7, 1808, to July 9, 1809. In 1808, following Napoleon's invasion of Spain, the criollos of Santo Domingo revolted against the French, which caught the attention of British forces engaged in the Caribbean campaign of 1803–1810. The revolt culminated in 1809 with a return to the Spanish colonial rule for a period commonly termed España Boba.
