Living in Dominica
Dominica is a very small island nation located in the Caribbean. Its nearest neighbouring islands are Guadeloupe to the north, and Martinique to the south. It has a population of approximately 72,000, 15,000 of whom live in the island’s capital, Roseau. The island was a British colony from 1763 until 1978 when it became independent, and as a result Dominica’s official language is English. Within the Caribbean, the island is particularly known for its ecology and environmental features. The hot spring, named the Boiling Lake, is the second largest in the World, while much of the island is covered by mountainous rainforests and rivers. It also has various unique native species, including the Sisserou Parrot, which is the national bird of Dominica. Unsurprisingly, the island is a popular eco-tourism destination. Primarily however, the island economy is dependant on agriculture; bananas used to be the main export, but farming has since diversified into coffee and exotic fruits. This does leave the island vulnerable to external market changes. Culturally, music and dance form important aspects of the Dominica way of life. The native Carib tribe also still remains on the island and has their own designated territory. Cricket is popular on the island, and Dominica is one of the islands that contribute players to the West Indies international team.
