9/ Sadly conditions in Haiti πŸ‡­πŸ‡Ή are still very difficul, and it is the poorest country in the western hemisphere.

Here's an aerial image of the border with the much wealthier Dominican Republic πŸ‡©πŸ‡΄, you can see the significant deforestation on the Hatian side.

10/ Haiti πŸ‡­πŸ‡Ή has an open territorial dispute - with the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ over tiny, uninhabited Navassa Island

The island is administered by the US Fish and Wildlife service as a National Wildlife Refuge. It is the only one of the "United States Minor Outlying Islands" not in the Pacific
