Dominican Republic by Enyer

   


 The Dominican Republic is a beautiful country in the Caribbean.

DR is in the Caribbean on the East part of the island with Haiti.
At one time France controlled DR, and it was part of Spain until independence in 1844.


The Dominican Republic is an island with beautiful beaches and  mountains in the middle. In DR some types of popular music are; Merengue, Salsa, Bolero, Denbow  and African folk music. Some popular foods are: rice with chicken and ripe plantain, Sancocho and mangu with salami, avocado, and egg.

 

What I love about the Dominican Republic is the food, people, and the weather.

Haiti, by Cliphane

  Haiti has a very interesting history. There were a million Arawaks when the Europeans arrived. The Arawaks were the first tribe in Haiti. Before 1492, there were more than a million  Arawaks who lived on the island. They were almost all killed by 1600.  Gaining Independence for Haiti was not easy, it took a lot of work. In 1804, Haiti got independence from France. This means that Haiti was the 1st free country led by African black people. Today, Haiti is a country with challenges. Some of this is because  Haiti had to pay a  big payment of 150 million francs to France and some more money to America. Haiti was the first country in the world to make slavery illegal. Haiti has a very interesting history.

Haiti, by Mavens

  Haiti is an island in North America in the Caribbean.  Port-au-Prince is the capital of Haiti. The language in Haiti is a blend of African, French and Taino. Haiti is the first all Black county to get independence. In 1749 the French came to Port-au-Prince. Haiti is one of the poorest countries, so why should France or the United States squeeze its money?  There are many bandits in Haiti. Haitian food is very rich. Haitians in Haiti play soccer.
