Hispaniola, an island of two republics, Haiti and Dominican Republic, lies about 100 miles from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Haiti has an area of about 11,000 square Miles and a population of about 8,400,000(perhaps some fewer now)which is about 95% black. The Dominican Republic is a it larger and is about 3/4 Creole.
Haitians created the first black led republic in the world. It is the second republic created in the New World. Looking at its history, it seems that from it inception until very recently that most of the leaders of the western world have tried, with much success, to crush it.
Even recently, it seems that the UN supported the US in depriving the people of Haiti of their most popular elected president.
