Dominican Republic 1865-1918
The Dominican Republic continued to be politically instable; the presidency more often than not was fought over, presidencies, with few exceptions, short-lasting. U.S. influence continued to grow, as the U.S., with the PANAMA CANAL in mind, more and more turned it's attention to the Caribbean region.
The Dominican Republic, after the assassination of one of it's presidents, RAMON CACERES, in 1912, experienced a protracted turmoil. In 1916 U.S. forces invaded, establishing order throughout the republic, but facing a guerilla movement from 1917 onward.

COMMENTARY
Neighborly quarrels: The Dominican Republic and the perennial Haitian immigrant issue
by Alicia Asper and Joseph Taves, COHA Research Associates Friday, July 1, 2005 On May 16, 2005, a Dominican military truck stopped in front of the Francisco del Rosario Sanchez High School in the northwest Dominican Republic (DR). Soldiers jumped out and began to pull students out of the school courtyard and onto the back of the truck. As they stood bewildered on the truck’s bed while it later drove from the school, the students began to realize that the soldiers’ mission was to send them across the border to Haiti.

Hispanidad and Catholicism. In such a way, Dominicans have been disconnected from their African, their indigenous, and their mixed Afro-Mestizo Criollo (Creole) ancestry and cultural heritage, even though it is these ancestries and heritages which mark Dominicans with the significant emblems of their contemporary identity.

this knowledge to help them find their path beyond Columbus's wake.

I am impressed with the information about the history of the Taino people in the Dominican Republic. I wonder if there is such information available for Haiti? I am a Loko Arawak from Guyana and have been living in Haiti for 5 months now. I am hoping to be here for 5 years. I would like, therefore, to make contact with my Taino relatives here and to read more about their history.

Juan Luis Guerra History of Merengue Origins of Merengue
Galván, the best known writer of Dominican fiction, was greatly troubled by the swinging hips of merengue dancers. In the eighth stanza of the "Complaint of the Tumba against the Merengue", he expresses outrage why Euro-Dominican sisters an daughters should act so lewdly.
Merengue in the rural regions. Rural merengue likely developed from its urban cousin in the same way that the rural danza evolved from its urban couterpert in Puerto Rico. In this case, each region of the Dominican Republic would have adapted the music to local instruments and aesthetics to create the variants performed today. Supporting this view is the fact that while the regional variants use widely differing instruments, rhythms, and melodies, all are independent couple dances performed in the ballroom dance position. Although merengue was performed throughout the Dominican Republic during the nineteenth century, we have most of our information from the country's most populous region, the Cibao, Mid-century merengue cibaeño, or Cibao merengue, was performed on plucked string instruments such as the cuatro, the tambora drum, and scraped calabash, the güiro. Rural groups also sometimes added wind instruments in imitation of salon prquestas. String instruments in merengue cibaeño gave way to the accordion, which began arriving in the region during the 1870s. Germany was an important trading partner for Cibao tobacco growers, and according to oral tradition, Germans bartered their one-row button accordions for tobacco.

These categories cover many lagoons, river estuaries, islands and bays.
Parque Nacional del Este, which includes Isla Soana, is on the peninsula south of San Rafael del Yuma. Its highlights include remote beaches, samples of pre-Columbian art on the walls of its cave system, and the habitat of the now scarce paloma coronita (crowned, or white-headed dove, Columba leucocephala), the rhinoceros iguana and of several turtle species. A study conducted with international funds has found that tourist-oriented activities do not give the proper importance to environmental concerns, and that uncontrolled visits by hundreds of people greatly disrupt the internal micro-climates and the bat population. Likewise, motorboats contribute to spoil the beach areas with fuel and lubricants that affect the habitat of manatees, dolphins, turtles and iguanas and pollute the waters.
The Montecristi National Park -on the Haitian border, to the Northwest- contains marine and land ecosystems, a coastal lagoon, Laguna de Saladillo; dry subtropical forest and Cayos Siete Hermanos (the Seven Brother Keys) in the southwest. Sierra de Bahoruco, an important mountain range, is a forested highland with 52% of the orchids found in the Republic, and many species of birds. The southernmost tip of Barahona, also in the southwest, has the Jaragua National Park (mostly dry forest), which includes Isla Beata (Beata Island).

CARIBBEAN-U.S. RELATIONS
Transit routes across the Central American isthmus also interested Americans, especially after the 1848 acquisition of California and the discovery of gold there. The 1850 Clayton-Bulwer Treaty with Britain stated that any future isthmian canal should be jointly controlled. But interest in the isthmian routes faded after completion of a transcontinental railroad system. The American Civil War diverted attention from Caribbean initiatives, but in 1869-1870 President Ulysses S. Grant vainly sought Senate approval for the request of the president of Santo Domingo (later the Dominican Republic) for annexation. A private French project to build a Panama canal aroused a sharper reaction: President Rutherford B. Hayes insisted that any such canal must be under American control (even a British partnership was now unpopular in the United States). Washington's alarm lessened when the French company went bankrupt in 1888. Beginning in 1895 a Cuban revolt against Spain brought guerrilla warfare and widespread suffering to that island. A skillful Cuban propaganda campaign caused the American public and Congress to favor Cuban independence, the one concession Spain rejected. The mysterious 1898 explosion of the battleship

LATIN AMERICA-U.S. RELATIONS
The histories of the United States and Latin America are intimately related. Consider both that St. Augustine (the oldest city in the United States), Pensacola, New Orleans, San Antonio, Santa Fe, and many others were once Spanish towns and that citizens of Hispanic background now form the second largest minority in the United States. The relationship has been accompanied by cultural and demographic exchanges that have profoundly influenced all of its participants. British colonization after 1607 was part of a "grand design" to wrest all the New World realms from Spain. The British soon converted their Caribbean colonies into sugar plantations worked by African slaves. The North American colonies were of less economic significance to this mercantilist development, participating mainly as suppliers of foodstuffs and lumber to the Caribbean and as its competitors in the production of cotton and tobacco. Continental militia, sharing the same goals as the British, took part in wars with Spain. One of the benefits was the conquest of Spanish Florida in 1763, resolving years of border struggles with Georgia. But when the British continental colonies declared independence, it was with Spanish aid, and independence inspired Spanish colonials to revolt later. There were several uprisings, largely fueled by resentment over taxes levied to pay for Caribbean defense. The desire of Spanish colonial elites to separate was attenuated, however, when the 1791 Haitian Revolution was captured by its slaves. The loss of the strategic Haitian ports forced Napoleon Bonaparte to sell Louisiana for a trifle to the United States. The Americans, far from acknowledging their Haitian benefactors, joined the other slave powers in refusing to recognize Haitian independence.

    History The earliest known inhabitants of the Dominican Republic reached the island around 2600 BC, using dugout canoes that allowed them to ride the current from South America throughout the Antilles. They were primarily nomadic hunter-gatherers who used stone tools and left little behind for archaeologists to examine. A second group, often referred to as the Salanoids or ancient Arawaks, landed on Hispaniola around 250 BC. The group, easily traced because of their distinctive ceramics, spread throughout the Caribbean. A third migration, from Venezuela, swept through the Antilles about 2000 years ago, and by AD 700 occupied the Dominican Republic and most of the surrounding islands. This society's complex hierarchical structure allowed for specialization in fishing, worship, art and farming. They called themselves the Ta­no (friendly people), and an estimated 400,000 of them lived on Hispanola when Christopher Columbus got off the ship to greet them. Folks on another island had told Columbus that there was gold to be found there, and the anxious Italian set off in the night to find it, accidentally dashing the Santa Mar­a offshore.

    Unesco report ranks Cuban students first in international math and reading tests This year, a report published by UNESCO released the data from a study on educational achievement in Latin America conducted the previous year. The study was coordinated by the Unesco's Regional Office for Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (UNESCO-OREALC). It consisted of a comparative evaluation of achievement in mathematics and language in 13 Latin American countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Chile, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela. This comparative study on Latin American educational achievement was particularly important because it was the first one in which the indicators and procedures were agreed upon by the representatives of all the participant countries. The tests were conducted with students in grade 3 and grade 4. Overall, Cuban students showed the highest level of achievement, well above the students from other Latin American countries. The Cuban performance in the Unesco study cannot be underestimated. Cuban students scored 350 points (around 90 per cent correct answers), 100 points above of the regional average. Argentina, Chile and Brazil followed with scores close to 250 points. The lowest results were in the Dominican Republic and Venezuela (UNESCO-OREALC, 1998, 2000, World Bank 1999). The report mentions that the "test achievement of the lower half of students in Cuba is significantly better than the test achievement of the upper half of students in the countries that fall immediately behind Cuba. (p. 21). It also notes that, with the exception of Cuba, there were no significant differences in the results of the participating countries:

    Regional Influences on Belize
    lthough Belize was a British colony until September 21, 1981, the United States of America had a strong influence on Belize. Its influence was actually greater than that of Britain or any other country in the region. In 1935, the British Governor of Belize, Sir Alan Burns, wrote: "The whole colony is, however, largely influenced by the comparative proximity of the U.S. and the people as a whole are more Americans than British in their outlook. This may be due to a limited extent to the cinema, but is more directly attributable to the influence of the trade and education." The U.S.'s interest and influence on Belize began well over a hundred years ago. In order to understand its growth, it is first necessary to study the expansion of U.S. influence throughout the region.
