Answer 2

I'd say that it was because it was a valuable source of goods like coffee and sugar. At the time, Haiti supplied more than half of the coffee and a little less than half of all the sugar to colonial powers (like Britain and France). That was a lot of bling that Napoleon didn't want to give up.
