I went to Haiti in Febuary and decided to use that as my topic tonight. Haiti may be suffering with poverty and a lack of food, but they are happy as the culture and the people hold them to place. They are extremely happy in their country (minus the current government), but together they unite. They have been united since 1804, when Haiti declared independence. There are many statues of Jean-Jacques Dessalines in Haiti and the citizens of the country take pride in him, as I have asked them. I met a couple guys during myvisit who have family in the United States (thus they can move there), but when I asked them why they wouldn’t go there, they said “How can I leave Haiti”. Thus, what holds them to their country, despite the hardships, are the people. Haiti also has a wide variety of wildlife, but is very near to the equator, so it makes it a little harder, as species like to be cool. It is however it is one of the most biologically significant countries of the world. I would like to go back and discover the flore and fauna.
