It’s a mystery

That image shows that the DR is 10x richer than Haiti; why lump them together?

They weren't colonised by the UK.

racism

Dominican Republic is too close from Haiti.

Still poor compared to the rest THOUGH

WTF Cayman Islands is only worth 85k??? And Haiti is like 700 bucks??? Why the fuck can’t I just buy their whole country? I’ve got 100k sitting in a brokerage I can easily buy Cayman Islands right now whatever the fuck that place is. Never heard of it in my life which must be why it’s so cheap but I’d like to own my own Caribbean island. How can we make offers?

Per capita is what the average person makes a year

Well I make 100k in a year so I can easily buy their country then

>Well I make 100k in a year so I can easily buy their country then
Wew but these islands make billions of dollars each year

>Haiti's literacy rate of about 61% (64.3% for males and 57.3% for females)
damn

Dominican Republic isn't that poor

>Dominican Republic isn't that poor
Compared to Haiti it’s rich, compared to the rest of the islands it’s below average

they are the same island

Haiti was a French colony you spastic frogoid

and england was a french one.

Only Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Belize and Haiti are real countries out of those, the rest are just foreign colonies of different kinds or tax havens where 99.99% of the people there dont actually see any of that money

Not the case, all of those nations have higher hdis and living standards then those countries.
People in triad and Tobago live longer than in the doninican republic.
