Before Haiti and Dominic Republic were split into two different countries, they were one country known as the Island of Hispaniola.

Even though the Americans do not teach it to be a Hispanic country, historically speaking it is. Then it was invaded by the French and the language changed.

BTW: No one is dying to be Latin.

It is what it is. Go learn some history first.

The topic is: sir how is haiti a latin country

I cannot believe this argument is still going on. 1. Be careful, there's Wikipedia which tends to have more valid information and than there's Wikianswers which tends to be full of junk. Information on both of these can be misleading, but most of > >

Puert Rico, DR ans Cuba are Central Latin America 'caus ethey speak a language derived from Latin. Make sense? Jamaica is in Latin America but is not Latino 'cause they don't speak a Latin derived language. > >

Some one asked me once if Haitians were considered Latino. I’m Haitian-American and I’ve always thought about whether or not I fit into that group of people. I’m always hearing people say (mainly Dominicans and Puerto Ricans) that Haitians... > >
