Dominica

The Commonwealth of Dominica is a borderless country in the Caribbean, a parliamentary democracy within the Commonwealth. Unlike other former British colonies in the region, Dominica was never a Commonwealth realm with the British monarch as head of state, as it instead became a republic on independence.

The name is pronounced "Dom-in-EEK-a," with the accent on the third syllable. It should not to be confused with the Dominican Republic, another Caribbean nation, (with stress on the "a").
