More like Mediterrenean, and aren't Mediterraneans just olive-skinned nords?

Now how did those Alpines get to the DR though? Are most Dominicans of Basque descent?

JankeeGoHum previously said:

haitians and dominicans are brothers. you guys got separated at birth and no longer even recognize each other. thats the way i see it. Lots of dominicans are dark, some Haitians are very black yes but a lot look like african americans too, expecially the ones in america.

Haiti and DR are the same, the europeans ****** you guys over badly and now you guys claim no relation to each other.

If we're Cain and Abel, that is.Hmmm, I didn't know Boyer and his cronies were European. I wouldn't claim relation to my cousin who kidnapped my daughter and did who-knows-what to her, and the only reason why she is alive is because she escaped from him. Even if hundreds of years later he is begging like a viralata sarnoso for help. Lucky he, that I haven't given him change with the same coin.-supposition

Boyer's father was French, Boyer mother's was mullato.

The french concept of citizenship and belonging is more tied to the culture that the person is practicing at the moment, instead of his/her looks.

The coastal areas of Colombia. Maybe Nicaragua. Some Nicaraguans I've noticed have a speaking tone that is very similar to Dominicans.

That is correct, this is exactly how Frenchmen themselves explain it.

That's a good an analogy as any. Unfortunately, the prevalent political correctness of the countries that proclaim themselves "friends of Haiti" is making them suffer from agnosia, that is, making them forget that the current status quo was not the norm a century ago. The current conditions on Haiti are so dire that any time one tells an euro/american that they (the haitians) were once the strongest nation on the island and the dominicans the underdog, they can't help but shake their heads in disbelief or become dumbstruck, cuz' for them its an intellectual leap of biblical proportions to comprehend how a country could sink so low in so short a timespan, or that an enslaved african community could be able to overcome the shackes of slavery and colonialism and become an imperial entity in its own right in the space of a few decades, even if the community into which they exerted dominion were only a bunch of dirt poor cattle ranchers. It can hardly correspond with the socioeconomic conditions that they have in front of their eyes.
