The reestablishment of Spanish sovereignty in Santo Domingo had several difficulties. The critical situation in Spain and the raise of the patriotic movement along Mexico, South America and the Caribbean, were insurmountable obstacles to the Spanish Monarchy, who couldn't send the resources that Santo Domingo needed. Furthermore, new independence ideas, which had spread all over the colony, led to several conspiracies against the Spanish Government. These conspiracies were inspired in two different models, Venezuela and Haiti, which had different points of view about slavery and abolition.
