Haiti

Haiti is a sovereign state in the Western Hemisphere (North America). The country is located on the island of Hispaniola, in the Greater Antilles archipelago of the Caribbean. It also includes various offshore islands; the most popular islands are: the island of Tortuga (Île de la Tortue), Gonâve Island and Île à Vache (Cow Island), a lush island with many beautiful sights, located off the tip of southwestern Haiti. Though it’s still recovering from a 2010 earthquake, many of Haiti's landmarks dating to the early 19th century remain intact.
