The Dominican Republic is a Spanish-speaking representative democracy located on the eastern portion of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, bordering Haiti. A legacy of unsettled, mostly non-representative, rule for much of the 20th century — most notably the thirty-two year reign of the military leader Rafael Leónidas Trujillo — lasted until 1961.
The Dominican Republic should not be confused with Dominica, another Caribbean country.
The capital is Santo Domingo. The second largest city is Santiago de los Caballeros.
