Haiti
Haiti occupies the western third of Hispaniola, the second-largest island in the Caribbean, sharing it with the Dominican Republic. The terrain is sharply mountainous — the name itself derives from a Taíno word meaning "land of high mountains" — and that rugged interior shapes everything from agriculture to regional isolation. Port-au-Prince is loud, dense, and layered with history that stretches back to the first Black republic in the Western Hemisphere.
