It borders the Dominican Republic to the east, with Cuba to the northwest across the Windward Passage in the Caribbean and Jamaica to the west across the Jamaica Channel. The capital is Port-au-Prince.

Independence in 1804 was the first in Latin America, the second in the Americas, and the world's first black republic. The turmoil has continued since independence, and large-scale disasters and delays in reconstruction have spurred the turmoil.
