- Location: Haiti is located on the Western third portion of Hispaniola Island (the Eastern two-thirds of Hispaniola is part of the Dominican Republic). Haiti is located between the North Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea.
- Size: Haiti is approximately 27,750 sq kilometers. It's about 0.34% of the total Continental US area.
- Terrain: Haiti is a rather mountainous nation, and borders both the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. Because the Eastern mountains stop trade winds, the climate can be either tropical or semiarid (depending on the geography).
