Reasons for foreign policy and national security of the Haitian state, newly founded in 1804, it led invasion was not possible for the new republic think its viability when the French, who had become independent, they could use the territory of the French as a basis for future actions against Haitian sovereignty.
Operations began on the 16th, but it was not until 22 Haitians marched the armies of The Mahogany to Las Matas. The first hostilities between Haitian and French troops took place on the 28th, between San Juan de la Maguana and Azua.
On March 6 the Haitian army reached Galá, distant about 4 miles from the city where he established the imperial Canton. The next day, the defenders of the Plaza de Santo Domingo began to bombard the Haitian advanced and began the siege of the city that would last until the 29th that Haitians, considering that fresh troops had landed by the fleet French takes five large vessels in sight of the city, decided to leave the area and go to defend their positions in Haiti.

Given that during the process of Haitian independence was used by nationals of that country's policy of "scorched earth" through which burned and desolated all property that could be useful to the enemy, including food , cattle and people, the Haitian invaders applied the same policy with the Dominicans, who favored the French domination posed to his, and made acquaintances beheadings of Moca and Santiago, next to the fire of other cities and herds.

To comply with what was agreed in the Treaty of Basel, the French armies reached the east side of the island, some people rebelled and fought, others agreed and supported the French. On all the inhabitants of the ruling classes of the former Spanish colony, gave him their support primarily for the restoration of these imposed slavery.
But later, some of the measures implemented by Ferrand were not to his liking, because they went against the interests of cattlemen. This resulted in the initiation of a liberation movement anti-French, which was called the Reconquista.
It was started by Ciriaco Ramirez, who began to mobilize the people of Azua to attack French troops. They were joined by Juan Sanchez Ramirez in the Cibao.
Ferrand to learn of the insurrection, attacked in battle of Palo Hincado call for having fought in the savannah of the name. Ferrand was defeated and to be lost, ended his life in the same place.

Two propositions were discussed.

It was decided that the Santo Domingo Spanish would be a colony of Spain, was recognized as king Fernando VII, and was appointed Governor Juan Sanchez Ramirez.
The hateros imposed their will, by having a greater number of delegates, and as the sector with the greatest economic, social and political at the time.
