MAP OF HAITI

greetings my friends. this is a map of Haiti. Haiti forms the western three-eighths of Hispaniola, the second largest island in the Greater Antilles. Haiti is the third largest country in the Caribbean. the Dominican Republic, shares a 360-kilometer border with Haiti. The country has a roughly horseshoe shape and because of this it has a disproportionately long coastline, at 1,771 km .

Haiti is the most mountainous nation in the Caribbean, its terrain consists of mountains interspersed with small coastal plains and river valleys. The climate is tropical, with some variation depending on altitude. The highest point is Pic la Selle, at 2,680 meters.

The northern region or Marien Region consists of the Massif du Nord and the Plaine du Nord. The Massif du Nord is an extension of the Cordillera Central in the Dominican Republic. It begins at Haiti's eastern border, north of the Guayamouc River, and extends to the northwest through the northern peninsula. The lowlands of the Plaine du Nord lie along the northern border with the Dominican Republic, between the Massif du Nord and the North Atlantic Ocean.

The central region or Artibonite Region consists of two plains and two sets of mountain ranges. The Plateau Central extends along both sides of the Guayamouc River, south of the Massif du Nord. It runs from the southeast to the northwest. To the southwest of the Plateau Central are the Montagnes Noires, whose most northwestern part merges with the Massif du Nord. Haiti's most important valley in terms of crops is the Plaine de l'Artibonite, which lies between the Montagnes Noires and the Chaîne des Matheux. This region supports the country's longest river, the Riviere l'Artibonite, which begins in the western region of the Dominican Republic and continues for most of its length through central Haiti, where it then empties into the Golfe de la Gonâve. Also in this valley lies Haiti's second largest lake, Lac de Péligre, formed as a result of the construction of the Péligre Dam in the mid-1950s. thats all. please comment and subscribe for the best maps. goodbye.
saludos mis amigos. Este es un mapa de Haití. Haití forma las tres octavas partes occidentales de La Española, la segunda isla más grande de las Antillas Mayores. Haití es el tercer país más grande del Caribe. la República Dominicana, comparte una frontera de 360 kilómetros con Haití. El país tiene una forma aproximada de herradura y por ello tiene una costa desproporcionadamente larga, con 1.771 km.

Haití es la nación más montañosa del Caribe, su terreno consiste en montañas intercaladas con pequeñas llanuras costeras y valles fluviales. El clima es tropical, con alguna variación dependiendo de la altitud. El punto más alto es Pic la Selle, a 2.680 metros.

La región norte o Región de Marien está formada por el Massif du Nord y la Plaine du Nord. El Massif du Nord es una extensión de la Cordillera Central en la República Dominicana. Comienza en la frontera oriental de Haití, al norte del río Guayamouc, y se extiende hacia el noroeste a través de la península norte. Las tierras bajas de la Plaine du Nord se encuentran a lo largo de la frontera norte con la República Dominicana, entre el Massif du Nord y el Océano Atlántico Norte.

La región central o Región del Artibonito está formada por dos llanuras y dos conjuntos de sierras. La Meseta Central se extiende a ambos lados del río Guayamouc, al sur del Macizo del Norte. Se extiende de sureste a noroeste. Al suroeste de Plateau Central se encuentran las Montagnes Noires, cuya parte más al noroeste se fusiona con el Massif du Nord. El valle más importante de Haití en términos de cultivos es la Plaine de l'Artibonite, que se encuentra entre Montagnes Noires y Chaîne des Matheux. Esta región sostiene el río más largo del país, el Riviere l'Artibonite, que comienza en la región occidental de la República Dominicana y continúa durante la mayor parte de su longitud a través del centro de Haití, donde luego desemboca en el Golfo de la Gonâve. También en este valle se encuentra el segundo lago más grande de Haití, Lac de Péligre, formado como resultado de la construcción de la presa Péligre a mediados de la década de 1950. eso es todo. por favor comente y suscríbase para los mejores mapas. adiós. #haiti #mapschool #mapsolo #cartemap #kartemap #mapamap #petamap #caribbean #caribe #caribean

Haiti Maps

The island of Hispaniola, the second largest island in the Caribbean, contains two separate countries; the Dominican Republic and Haiti. Columbus claimed Hispaniola in 1492, and it later became the major launching base for the Spanish conquest of the Caribbean, as well as the American mainland. Subsequently, disease and slavery were introduced by the Spanish conquistadors, and the indigenous Arawak peoples were destroyed. In the 17th Century, with the Spanish in control, the French established a colony on the island. The Spanish later ceded the western third of Hispaniola in 1697, which in 1804 became known as Haiti, at the conclusion of the Haitian Slave Revolt. Since then, Haiti has been ruled by a seemingly-endless line of dictators; who imposed absolute obedience to their authority. That political turmoil has continually divided Haiti into a very small and wealthy elite, and a large underclass of people with little or no economic or political power. At the beginning of the 21st century, Haiti did struggle to establish the legitimacy of its government and to improve the economic and social conditions of its people.

map of Haiti

Haiti ; French: Haïti , Haitian Creole: Ayiti [ajiti]), officially the Republic of Haiti (French: République d'Haïti; Haitian Creole: Repiblik d Ayiti), and formerly known as Hayti, is a country located on the island of Hispaniola in the Greater Antilles archipelago of the Caribbean Sea, to the east of Cuba and Jamaica and south of The Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands. It occupies the western three-eighths of the island which it shares with the Dominican Republic. To its south-west lies the small Navassa Island, which is claimed by Haiti but is disputed as a United States territory under federal administration. Haiti is 27,750 km2 (10,714 sq mi) in size, the third largest country in the Caribbean by area, and has an estimated population of 11.4 million, making it the most populous country in the Caribbean. The capital is Port-au-Prince.

The island was originally inhabited by the indigenous Taíno people, who originated in South America. The first Europeans arrived on 5 December 1492 during the first voyage of Christopher Columbus, who initially believed he had found India or China. Columbus subsequently founded the first European settlement in the Americas, La Navidad, on what is now the northeastern coast of Haiti. The island was claimed by Spain and named La Española, forming part of the Spanish Empire until the early 17th century. However, competing claims and settlements by the French led to the western portion of the island being ceded to France in 1697, which was subsequently named Saint-Domingue. French colonists established lucrative sugarcane plantations, worked by vast numbers of slaves brought from Africa, which made the colony one of the richest in the world.

In the midst of the French Revolution (1789–99), slaves and free people of color launched the Haitian Revolution (1791–1804), led by a former slave and the first black general of the French Army, Toussaint Louverture. After 12 years of conflict, Napoleon Bonaparte's forces were defeated by Louverture's successor, Jean-Jacques Dessalines (later Emperor Jacques I), who declared Haiti's sovereignty on 1 January 1804—the first independent nation of Latin America and the Caribbean, the second republic in the Americas, the first country in the Americas to abolish slavery, and the only state in history established by a successful slave revolt. Apart from Alexandre Pétion, the first President of the Republic, all of Haiti's first leaders were former slaves.[ After a brief period in which the country was split in two, President Jean-Pierre Boyer united the country and then attempted to bring the whole of Hispaniola under Haitian control, precipitating a long series of wars that ended in the 1870s when Haiti formally recognized the independence of the Dominican Republic.

Haiti's first century of independence was characterized by political instability, ostracism by the international community and the payment of a crippling debt to France. Political volatility and foreign economic influence in the country prompted the U.S. to occupy the country from 1915 to 1934. Following a series of short-lived presidencies, François 'Papa Doc' Duvalier took power in 1956, ushering in a long period of autocratic rule continued by his son, Jean-Claude 'Baby Doc' Duvalier, that lasted until 1986; the period was characterized by state-sanctioned violence against the opposition and civilians, corruption, and economic stagnation. After 1986, Haiti began attempting to establish a more democratic political system.

Haiti is a founding member of the United Nations, Organization of American States (OAS),[Association of Caribbean States, and the Organisation internationale de la Francophonie. In addition to CARICOM, it is a member of the International Monetary Fund,] World Trade Organization, and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States. Historically poor and politically unstable, Haiti has the lowest Human Development Index in the Americas. Since the turn of the 21st century, the country has endured a coup d'état, which prompted U.N. intervention, as well as a catastrophic earthquake that killed over 250,000 people. mapa de Haiti

I Spent a Day in Haiti's Most Dangerous Slum

Guys I have to be honest with you in this one. After visiting all 197 countries and thousands of cities around the world, I can say with 100% certainty that Port au Prince, Haiti, takes the crown as THE MOST DANGEROUS. Yes, more than Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya, Syria and Iraq COMBINED.

I've never experienced before what I just experienced in Haiti... 80% of the city is controlled by violent street gangs, and when we crossed the sketchy checkpoint to enter the biggest slum called Cite Soleil, we had to get permission from the gang-leading chief to enter. I can't make this stuff up.

I'm just glad that I made it out alive and am here to tell this story. My heart aches for the people in Haiti, who are living through this disastrous situation. I hope the country will return to its thriving days like it was a few decades ago. There is so much potential with stunning beaches, smiling faces, and Caribbean vibes.

Thanks for watching - it took my team of 4 and myself more than 3 weeks to get this story edited. My hope is that this video sparks conversations that contribute to a broader understanding and ultimately, a positive change for the future of Haiti.

Haiti - La Citadella la Ferriere and Sans Souci

The awe-inspiring mountain fortress of La Citadella la Ferriere is a short distance from Cap-Haitien on the edge of the small town of Milot. Built to repel a possible French attack, it also stands as a monument to the vision of Henri Christophe, who oversaw its construction.

Built as a conscious rival to the splendors of the Versailles in France, Henri Christophe's palace of Sans Souci has lain abandoned since it was ruined in the 1842 earthquake. The years of neglect have left it partially reclaimed by the tropical environment, creating a wonderfully bizarre and evocative monument at once elegant and truly alien.

Here's what it looks like as you approach the Citadelle. While this is by motorized 4x4, I highly suggest taking a horse ride as it is a much better experience!

Top 10 Haiti Cities By Population

The population history of Haiti is a fascinating tale that has seen various shifts and changes over the years. Here is an overview of Haiti's population history:

1. Pre-Colonial Era: Prior to European colonization, the island of Hispaniola (which includes present-day Haiti and the Dominican Republic) was inhabited by indigenous Taíno people. It is estimated that their population was around 600,000 at the time of Christopher Columbus' arrival in 1492.

2. Colonial Period: During the 17th century, the French established a presence in the western part of Hispaniola and developed extensive sugar plantations. To work on these plantations, African slaves were imported in large numbers, resulting in a significant demographic shift. The slave population grew rapidly, and by the late 18th century, they outnumbered the French colonists by a wide margin.

3. Haitian Revolution: In 1804, Haiti became the first independent black republic after a long and bloody struggle against French colonial rule. The revolution resulted in a considerable loss of life, and the population was greatly reduced. It is estimated that the population of Haiti was around 500,000 at the time of independence.

4. 19th and Early 20th Century: Following independence, Haiti faced political instability, economic challenges, and external pressures. The population gradually began to recover, and by the early 20th century, it reached approximately 1.5 million.

5. Mid-20th Century: Throughout the mid-20th century, Haiti experienced moderate population growth. The population reached around 4.5 million by the 1960s.

6. Late 20th Century: From the 1970s to the 1990s, Haiti witnessed a rapid population increase. Factors contributing to this growth included high birth rates, limited access to family planning, and a decline in mortality rates. By the early 1990s, the population had reached over 6 million.

7. Recent Times: In recent decades, Haiti's population continued to grow, although at a slower pace compared to previous periods. However, the devastating earthquake in 2010 caused significant loss of life and displacement, affecting the population size. The exact population figures after this event can be challenging to ascertain due to various factors, including ongoing challenges and limited data availability.

As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, the estimated population of Haiti was around 11 million. However, please note that population figures are subject to change, and for the most up-to-date information, it is recommended to refer to official sources such as the United Nations or the Haitian government.

Hispaniola

Google Earth Photos of the Dominican Republic and Haiti

Haiti

Haiti officially the Republic of Haiti is a Caribbean country. Along with the Dominican Republic, it occupies the island of Hispaniola, in the Greater Antillean archipelago. Ayiti (land of high mountains) was the indigenous Taíno or Amerindian name for the mountainous western side of the island. The country's highest point is Pic la Selle, at 2,680 metres (8,793 ft). The total area of Haiti is 27,750 square kilometres (10,714 sq mi) and its capital is Port-au-Prince. French and Haitian Creole are the official languages.

Haiti's regional, historical, and ethnolinguistic position is unique for several reasons. It was the first independent nation in Latin America and the first black-led republic in the world when it gained independence as part of a successful slave rebellion in 1804. Despite having common cultural links with its Hispano-Caribbean neighbors, Haiti is the only predominantly Francophone independent nation in the Americas. It is one of only two independent nations in the Americas (along with Canada) that designate French as an official language; the other French-speaking areas are all overseas départements, or collectivités, of France.

Haiti is the poorest country in the Americas as per the Human Development Index. On various occasions, it has experienced political violence throughout its history. Most recently, in February 2004, an armed rebellion forced the resignation and exile of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and a provisional government took control with security provided by the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH). Rene Preval, the current president, was elected in the Haitian general election, 2006.

On January 12, 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti and devastated the capital city, Port-au-Prince. Reportedly more than 200,000 people were killed and buried later in mass graves, although the exact number was difficult to determine and the reported number fluctuates, plus a large number of people were made homeless. The Presidential palace, Parliament and many other important structures were destroyed, along with countless homes and businesses. ( source Wikipedia )

Haitian Monument - Savannah, GA

We continue our video series on African American History in Savannah with a stop in Franklin Square. This is where we find the Haitian Monument which marks the Siege of Savannah on Oct. 9, 1779. Footprints of Savannah Walking Tours owner Vaughnette Goode-Walker said more blacks fought here in Savannah during the American Revolutionary War than any other location. Americans gave guns to the enslaved people to fight the British.

The French would arrive with two regiments of mulattos and blacks from Santo Domingo. Among that group was Henri Christophe, who later became king of Haiti and builder of the Citadelle LaFerriere.


An inscription on the monument reads:

The largest unit of soldiers of African descent who fought in the American Revolution was the brave “les chasseurs volontaires de Saint Domingue. This regiment consisted of free men who volunteered for a campaign to capture Savannah from the British in 1779. Their sacrifice reminds us that men of African descent were also present on many other battlefields during the revolution.
