You can't go by why wikipedia says. anyone can edit that site

In response to sir how is haiti a latin country, you can't go by why wikipedia says. anyone can edit that site and at times is not very accurate.

all my haitians friends don't consider themselves latino nor they want to be latino.

plus haiti now from haiti back them were two different countries.

haiti has more french influence then spaniard.

once again haiti is not in latin america is in the caribbeans.

check any map of latin america.

puerto rico is a distric of united states but there latino but not a country of latin america.

dominican republic and cuba are very diverse with taino and mix with spaniard blood and spanish and also african.the excuse to say the haiti is next to dominican republic and thats why they should be latinos too, it be like saying united states is next to mexico so they should be latino too.

The topic is: sir how is haiti a latin country
