The world knows it, I knew it, she said it, and Dominicans know it too. The island’s original name is Ayiti. The west side, during and after colonization, speaks Creole and French (🇭🇹); the east side speaks Spanish (🇩🇴). Haiti’s independence in 1804 🇭🇹 was also the Dominican people’s 🇩🇴, because it was for the whole island 🏝️. The name “Dominican Republic” 🇩🇴 came in 1844. Dominicans considered themselves Spanish-speaking Haitians until 1821. When José Núñez de Cáceres declared independence from Spain on December 1, 1821, the new state called itself “Estado Independiente del Haití Español,” or Independent State of Spanish Haiti. 1822 was a reunification, as the world knows, because in 1801 it was already one people under Toussaint and Jean-Jacques Dessalines, not a colonization as DR 🇩🇴 history books say. Haiti honors the Taínos by keeping the island’s original name. More info: youtu.be/oGf5A52QYjk?is=GAXl…

L'ONU accuse l'ex-sénateur Nenel Cassy de contrôler le groupe « BLTS » (meurtres, viols collectifs, enlèvements) et d'avoir contribué à créer Fantome 509. Il serait lié à l'assassinat d'un diplomate (2021) et aurait planifié des attaques contre les aéroports. Il aurait aussi perçu de l'argent détourné par Patrick Noramé. Arrêté le 2 août 2025, libéré le 19 août ; dossier « classé sans suite » selon des sources. Il n'a pas répondu à l'ONU. #PAPPOST #Haiti

Empecé a leer la nota y la quité porque esto es mentira. Pasadas las 5:30 p. m., las puertas seguían cerradas y se perdió un tiempo valioso. La Federación, como institución, tiene responsabilidad. Si iba a explicar lo ocurrido, debió hacerlo mediante un comunicado oficial, no a través de una nota de prensa externa.

Yes, I said it: Dominican 🇩🇴 people and their government are ungrateful. 😤 Everyone else can trash Haitians 🇭🇹, but not the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 . Without Haiti, you would never be an independent country. 🙅🏾‍♂️ Here is a Dominican 🇩🇴 telling you the truth about your reality.

🇻🇪🔥 BREAKING: Venezuela’s second-largest refinery SHUT DOWN after massive fire Venezuela’s Cardón refinery has halted operations after a major fire erupted inside the facility in Falcón state. The refinery has a nominal capacity of 310,000 barrels per day and forms part of the massive Paraguaná Refining Complex. Personnel were evacuated as flames and huge columns of smoke rose from the facility. Regional reports describe an explosion preceding the fire, while Reuters reports a gas line associated with a gasoil-producing unit opened before the refinery was shut down. The cause has not yet been officially established.

This post is for Dominicans 🇩🇴 only, my neighbors!🤣😂 Help me understand: why do you still worship Christopher Columbus and keep his statue in Santo Domingo? I thought they killed almost all the Taínos. I'm confused. 🤔 Did I miss something? 🤷🏾
