Answer
A
sugar plantations
B
an African uprising
C
enslaved Africans
D
ruthless plantation owners
E
strenuous manual labor
F
a majority of free Whites

Explanation

Saint-Domingue’s wealth came largely from sugar plantations, which relied on the forced labor of enslaved Africans and strenuous manual work. The plantation system was controlled by ruthless owners who maintained that exploitation. An African uprising challenged the system rather than supporting the economy, and free Whites were not a majority of the population.
