Haiti
Haiti is a country of Central America, located in the
Antilles.
Haiti as country is
located in the western part of the island of Haiti, from which it occupies one
the third of the surface (the other part being occupied by the Dominican
Republic). Haiti has a mountainous relief and a tropical climate. Its southern part,
which gives on the Caribbean Sea, is exposed to
the cyclones.
The near total of
Haïtiens are descendants of black slaves. The majority of the inhabitants lives
in rural
zone.
Haiti is one of
the poorest countries of the world. It knows the strongest infant mortality
rate of the Antilles and the lowest life expectancy (a little more than 50
years).Its natural resources are rare.
Agriculture does not provide sufficient incomes, and the food situation of the
country worries the humane organizations.
