> The DR is one of the wealthiest Caribbean countries, and is rapidly getting their shit together. They're also a Spanish speaking nation with enormous cultural, economic, familial, and transportation ties to the rest of LATAM (particularly their hated cousin Puerto Rico).

USA are incredibly more wealthy than DR.

Haiti speaks french, not Spanish.

As I asked in the comment you answered to, you didn't explain why would the DR want to have anything to do with Haiti since they are successful on their own as you claim. What does the DR gains from merging with Haiti, one of the poorest country in the world?

You seem to have read my comment backwards. I'm not advocating for them taking over, or claiming that the DR speaks French, or interested in taking over all of Dominica.

Then what's the point of your comment at first place then? if you were just trying to argue that DR isn't "poor", poverty is obliviously relative, there are poorer countries (Haiti) and there are far richer countries (USA). It's seems like that's the only purpose of your message.
