Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic is located in the Greater Antilles archipelago in the Caribbean region. Christopher Columbus reached the Dominican Republic in 1492. Santo Domingo became the country's capital.

  1. I have always found it interesting that such a small island as Hispanola would be home to two different countries (Haiti & Domnican Republic) with their corresponding differences in language (French & Spanish) and culture. I believe that the Dominican Republic produces more major league ball players per sqauare mile than any other place on Earth.
