ABOUT DOMINICAN REPUBLIC


The Dominican Republic occupies the eastern side of the island of Hispaniola, with Haiti on the western side. In recent times the Dominican Republic has been one of the most vibrant economies in the Caribbean. Its traditional exports have been tobacco, coffee, and sugar. But the small country has expanded its mining industry greatly, along with tourism and finance. The Dominican Republic is also the third most populous country in the Caribbean, with three of its ten million residents living in the capital city of Santo Domingo.  

 

The Dominican Republic is the 8th largest economy in Latin America, and the largest in the Caribbean. It is home to the largest gold mine in Latin America, and the mining industry is growing fast.
