You should do a video comparing the good about Haiti with the good about the D.R and the things both countries have in common.

Hi - great video! but around 1:27 during your narration it seems you are literally reading a passage from text I have also read before. Do you have a reference to the authors and the work? I specifically remember the line about the encomeienda system. Just want to drill down further on this but really enjoying the video :)
The three countries are beautiful 🇨🇺 Cuba,🇩🇴 Dominican Republic,🇵🇷 Puerto Rico.
💙🤍❤
I am half Cuban/half Colombian. My father was born in Havana, Cuba and as told by Papí, my paternal abuelo was born in Cienfuegos, Cuba. I grew up with Puerto Ricans and Dominicans, and most of my friends are from PR and DR. I love Cuba, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic. All three islands possess A LOT of similarities culturally and geographically. ¡QUE VIVA CUBA LIBRE, PUERTO RICO, Y LA REPÚBLICA DOMINICANA!
🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯
🇨🇺🇩🇴🇵🇷❤
yeah lets just hope Puerto Rico doesnt become a state because our culture would be watered down and taken
See I love your attitude about the islands. We are all so much alike. And it's good we are different too. But we should always get along and try to take care of each other.
When I started studying Caribbean history, I found out that after bad hurricanes, they would all look out for each other and send each other rice, plantains, coffee, etc and I find that amazing. Political interests of course changed things. But that's another story. The point is, we should never go against each other, like in New York theres this stupid attitude some ppl have, like PR and DR ppl shouldn't mix.
Racism needs to die out. We are all treated differently in the United States, they dont see us as equals to White Americans, and it makes no sense we should treat each other like that too.
God knows we all mix with each other anyway, we cannot deny the strong attractions we feel. Not just romance either! In friendships, at school, growing up in the same hoods, playing sports and making friends with each other at workplaces. Like I'm Dominican wiv a lil Haitain, my neighbors are Cubano, my best friend is Panamanian and Puerto Rican, and my son is half Puerto Rican.
Sorry this is so long! Lol but I got love for everyone on the Islands too, let's spread that love cuz we are the same ppl wit the same history anyway 👍🏼
besos😂🍷🎶🍷😘😚😘
Phenomenal work! Soy Boricua and you did a great job of summarizing the Spanish trifecta. our history is intertwined since the arrival of the Tainos and maybe even before that. something about these islands is magical, mystical and enchanting.
Thank you so much! And yes we our islands have a unique and magical history indeed 🙂

Us Dominicans along with our distant cousin's would be native/taino Descendants. For the most part we are Tri Racial. I would definitely love to see more our own talk about the Antillean Confederation. English speaking people not familiar with that part of our history.
These three islands have given the world such beautiful music

The Spanish Caribbean refers to the Spanish-speaking areas in the Caribbean Sea, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico. It includes regions where Spanish is the main language, and the Spanish settlement and colonization influence culture, through religion, language and cuisine. The Greater Antilles rest on a common submarine massif and are crossed by an abrupt and elevated chain of mountains, whose highest peaks range between 2,000 and 3,000 meters above sea level (meters above sea level) culminating in the Dominican Republic (in Pico Duarte with 3,087 masl) and decreases, on both sides, in Cuba, Jamaica and Puerto Rico. These mountains are composed of limestone, with outcrops of other rocks, all of them much older than those of eruptive origin in the Lesser Antilles and without traces of recent volcanic activity. The Bahamas, by contrast, are islands of coral origin. In the past, the Bahamas was not even considered part of the Antilles, although today its coverage is widespread as a third group within the Antilles (Greater Antilles, Lesser Antilles, and Bahamas).
Xtina,wow that was a great job 🇵🇷🇩🇴🇨🇺🇺🇲🙏🌅🏖️
Thank you! ☺
Santo Domingo, capital of the Dominican Republic. It is situated on the southeast coast of the island of Hispaniola, at the mouth of the Ozama River, and is the oldest permanent city established by Europeans in the Western Hemisphere. The city is also the seat of the oldest Roman Catholic archbishopric in the Americas.
Great video. I studied history and cultural antropology and your video was on point. You are so right, there are three distinct indigenous groups that were in Cuba before the arrival of the Spanish. Gracias por el video. Sigue grabando tus vídeos...🇩🇴🇵🇷🇨🇺
Thank you!!
Actually recently in Florida, they found evidence that the tequesta people from Florida also lived there. The Mayans though not as numerous also contributed to the mix. So in reality there were five different ethnic natives cohabitating in Cuba before the Spaniards arrived. FYI.
The music of the Dominican Republic is primarily influenced by West African, European, and native Taino influences. The Dominican Republic is mainly known for SON, MERENGUE, BOLERO and BACHATA music, of which are the most popular forms of music in the country.
I was born in Dominican Republic you're good people do
Haitian & Cuban here.. DALE
You did a great job 👏🏼 🎉
Thank you. I’m Puerto Rican and teaching a class tomorrow. I’m always looking for more information about our history and culture and appreciate your effort!
Stay blessed! 🙏🏽
Thank you!
My father and I are American but his parents are Dominican and I try very hard to learn the culture💙
That's great! 😊
@@VivaBellabyXtina I'm not a Puerto Rican but I love the culture, just like Greek culture.
American are everybody you meant Norte American; besides Dominicans constitución declared anybody born from a Dominican is Dominican.
You are Dominican (DR) not American.

The music derived from African Ancestry for all of the islands, and Cuba is noted to be the author of Salsa.

Haiti and the Pan-Antillean Confederation - The idea of a united Caribbean nation or confederacy had long been part of the Haitian consciousness since independence was proclaimed. #Dessalines envisioned a united nation of African descendants, centralized in the Caribbean and spread throughout the the American south and northern South America. Boyer unified with #DominicanRepublic (then known as Spanish Haiti) in 1822 until 1844. The movements across the Spanish Caribbean in the 1860s and 70s renewed interests in Caribbean #unity. Following DR’s Restoration of Independence War, Lupéron (also likely of Haitian descent) expressed ideas for a confederation between DR and Haiti, stating that they were the “same people” and how they could protect each other from European influence. Obviously, this never came into fruition due to the erratic political situation in both countries and the #Dominican elites unwillingness to cooperate. When the idea of a Pan-Caribbean confederation was brought up between the #Hispanic Caribbean, the #PuertoRican nationalist, Ramón #Betances and #Cuban Nationalist Antonio Maceo petitioned Haiti’s inclusion. #Maceo stated a union between Haiti and Cuba would ensure the rights of the Afro population. Betances cited their revolutionary past and staunch anti-colonist sentiments. His petition influenced by his friendship with Haitian nationalist, Antenor Firmin. The pair first met in a meeting of the Society of Latin American Unity, an organisation that served as a social and political network for exiles from #LatinAmerica. Firmin and Betances both believed a pan-Caribbean state would have to give special protection to their African populations and work to limit the powers of the White upper class. Fermin devised a project that would unite the Greater Antilles over the course of 25 years. Unfortunately, pan-Caribbean ideals began to die down following the US’s annexation of PR, and invasion of Hispaniola. 🌴🇭🇹🌴🇭🇹🌴🇭🇹🌴🇭🇹🌴🇭🇹🌴 #haiti #haitian # #haitianpride #ayiti #haïti #haitianpride #1804 #history #quiskeya #hispaniola #haití #caribbean #haitiano #haitianos Reposted from @alexandrethehaitian - view on Instagram instagr.am/p/CE11wz1loE1/

The earliest inhabitants of the island of
Hispaniola, on which the Dominican Republic
is located. The Taínos were a seafaring branch of the South American Arawaks. Taíno means "the good" or "noble" in that native language.
@@ricanredru4760
The Wolof were imported to Santo Domingo from Senegal in the first half of the sixteenth century, until the import of this ethnic group was prohibited after his rebellion in 1522.
Many of the slaves were also Ajas, usually taken in Whydah, Benin. The Ajas arrived in Santo Domingo, were well known for having made religious brotherhoods, integrated exclusively for them, the San Cosme and
San Damian.
Very enjoyable production!
It’s funny how were more like than you think!!🇩🇴🇩🇴
This is one of the history video ever see before thanks u so much for this wonderful video peace and love for everyone watching this exciting history
Santo Domingo was founded in 1496 by Bartholomew Columbus, brother of Christopher Columbus, as the capital of the first Spanish colony in the New World. The original city site was located on the left (east) bank of the Ozama River and was called Nueva Isabela in honour of Queen Isabella I of Spain
Your comment should have recieved a heart from the creator of this channel. No different when she hearts a commentator who highlights how African or Indigenous the islands are.

I'm 🇵🇷🇺🇲🇩🇴🇮🇹
Islas perfectas
🇩🇴🇵🇷😁😁😁😋😋😁😋😁Im half Dominican (D.R.) and Puerto Rican and or Caribbean Hispanic and African american
Actually, Sasa was born in New York City, and yes Hector level and Willie Colon had a lot to do with it, and one could say they were the first salsa singers and performers, besides I was proposed to them as a mixture of music from several cultures mixed together to make a sauce, una salsa!
Prior to the arrival of Christopher Columbusand the Spanish in 1492, the native Taíno people populated the island which they called Quisqueya (mother of all lands) and Ayiti (land of high mountains), and which the Spanish later named Hispaniola. At the time, the island's territory consisted of five chiefdoms: Marién, Maguá, Maguana, Jaragua, and Higüey.[1] These were ruled respectively by caciques (chiefs) Guacanagarix, Guarionex, Caonabo, Bohechío, and Cayacoa.
In 1493, Columbus came back to the island on his second voyage and founded the first Spanish colony in the New World, the city of Isabella. In 1496, his brother Bartholomew Columbus established the settlement of Santo Domingo de Guzmán on the southern coast, which became the new capital. An estimated 400,000 Tainos living on the island were soon enslaved to work in gold mines. By 1508, their numbers had decreased to around 60,000 because of forced labor, hunger, disease, and mass killings. By 1535, only a few dozen were still alive.[2]
Dating from 1496, when the Spanish settled on the island, and officially from 5 August 1498, Santo Domingo became the first European city in the Americas.
Great video! True melting pots of people. Amazing what life Africa always brings to the party 😉
Congratulations, good summary of the 3 islands! It's interesting to know, even though the Dominican Republican is just a few miles from Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico has had a more closer relationship through the centuries with Cuba than with the Dominican Republic....It's also interesting to know that in the formative years of USA, both Cuba and Puerto Rico sent soldiers to fight in the "Louisiana Territory"......However, after the arriving of thousands of People from the Dominican Republic since the 1980's in clandestine trips to the Puerto Rican beaches in small wooden boats, the Dominican population in Puerto Rico started to grow, and now there's an important Dominican community, mainly in the San Juan metro area......For Cuba i would have chosen some Celia Cruz classic, for the Dominican Republic, "Burbujas de Amor" from Juan Luis Guerra and for Puerto Rico, "Despasito" from Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankie! 😮
Did you know that the island of Hispaniola was the first permanent European settlement in the Americas? ...
Santo Domingo, the oldest city in the Americas. ...
Yes..I mentioned that here

In the center of the shield, flanked by six spears, is a Biblewith a small golden cross above it. Popular belief claims that the pages are opened to the Gospel of John 8:32, which reads, "Y la verdad os hará libre." (And the truth shall make you free.)
santo Domingo DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
Enriquillo, also known as "Enrique" by the Spaniards, was a Taíno cacique who rebelled against the Spaniards between 1519 and 1533. Enriquillo's rebellion is the best known rebellion of the early Caribbean period. He is also considered a hero
in the modern day
Dominican Republic and Haiti for his resistance in favor of the indigenous peoples. Dominican friar Bartolome de Las Casas, who documented and rallied against Spanish abuse of the native peoples, wrote sympathetically of Enriquillo.
His father, his aunt Anacaona, and eighty other regional chieftains were killed by Nicolás de Ovando while attending supposed "peace talks" with the Spanish in Jaragua. During the talks, Spanish soldiers ambushed the chieftains, also known as caciques, set the meeting house on fire, and then proceeded to kill anyone who fled the flames (causing his father's death). Enriquillo, an orphan, was later raised in a Santo Domingo monastery and given the name of "Enrico"
I appreciate the balance in your approach to the topics. Groundbreaking methods of DNA extraction in tropical environments fleshes out a different picture of indigenous migration to the Caribbean; it states that the successive migrations from the mainland to the islands actually targeted the largest islands first, and research doesn't support the islands as stepping stones theory. Yes, it's odd, but I can forward the article if you're interested. What that means is human presence in the larger islands goes back thousands of years. I don't know if you've read it, but for a firsthand description of the taíno, I recommend you read Cristóbal Colon's entries in the log of his 1st voyage. He really does go into lots of detail about their appearance and even writes about the difference in features between Cuba (Juana) and Haití. "The Log of Christopher Columbus" by Robert H. Fuson. Lastly, what ever you do, DO NOT use fray Bartolomé de las Casas as a reference! He has been discredited in academic circles.
Yes! I’ve read it. Indigenous “black” people with curly hair were already there when he first arrived in Cuba. Black of different shades. If we go back even further they will be recognized as the tribe of Manasseh. ❤
@@indiscriminatethoughts6269 : I own a copy of Cristóbal Colon's log from his first voyage. There is absolutely no mention of "indigenous black people of different shades, nor does he mention anyone of curly hair. Your claims are a fabrication and prove that you haven't read about aboriginal DNA in the Western Hemisphere. Unsubstantiated claims aren't fact, especially when a firsthand account from 1492 exists.
Ropa Vieja it isn't pork mamita is beff but over all it's a good video. Congrats!!
Oops! Thanks for catching that 😁 and thank you!
Great Job, your channel is growing by leaps and bounds...
This was beautiful. Very similar ALL three. Great job girl 👍🧡
Thank you!
I had started it when you dropped it and I must say, you did a fabulous job!!!!!! 😘😘😍🤩
Thank you!!
Nice job and a very comprehensive look at all three countries. You may also want to add that the Cuban health system and medical training are some of the best in the West Indies. 🌹
Some Puerto Rican also have some amount of mix ganache tribe from the Caneries island.🇵🇷🇺🇲
Its guanche
I like Cuba, actually it is the only country in the Carribean I visited, I went there in 2008 and another time in 2014. The population in Havana to me is black and pardo as we say, this is what I see. Here when we say Cuba we think Fidel, beaches, cigars and dancing.
Love the video, I was born in Florida to a White Nicaraguan🇳🇮 father and a Chicana🇲🇽🇺🇸 Texan mother who was adopted and raised by an Anglo-American family. Unfortunately my father never taught me Spanish and I was only raised partially Nicaraguan🇳🇮 due to my extended family but I still have great love for Latin America, I most certainly love Dominican🇩🇴 culture and women😄. Afro-latinos need more recognition in all of Latin America and deserveto be placed in a high position due to all they have applied.
Salsa was modernized by Puerto Ricans AND Cubans in New York, but it was based off of SON from Cuba. It’s a Cuban song genre.
Wonderful work! I appreciate you, Beautiful 😻

I’m Dominican from my Dad and I’m Puerto Rican from my mother. I know very lil about both culture and history. Other then the music and food and know very lil about the history. But what I am mostly struggling with is my Identity and always have been. I don’t know where I fit in as someone who’s apparently biracial....
Do you mean you don't know where you fit in as far as racial categories, or as a hispanic?
@@VivaBellabyXtina as in a racial category. My mom’s Dad is European and her mom seems to be Tanio and her parents as well. While my Dad side seems to have all three black, Taino and European. From his parents. His mother seems to have a mixture of all three cause her mother is black but also seems to have Taino as well. While my grandfather from my Dad side looks like he has Taino as well. I know this is very long and all but it’s just confusing cause I’m not very white passing nor am I black passing either. So it’s like hard to identify myself racially wise cause I’m always getting told that I’m black or that I’m white or I’m indigenous
Just be you and dont worry about anything else.
Cubans call moro "congrí" but it has an extra ingredient
During the time of the evolution of Cuban music Puerto Rico had created and converted into more ingredients and call it salsa in New York. There is a difference. 🇵🇷🇨🇺
The Dominican Republic was also the very first place slaves were imported to in the new world
Edit : just noticed you did say it
If any of you have any video suggestions let me know! I think some of my best videos have come from you guy's suggestions 😁 lol
Hi. I just got back from La Habana Cuba this past May. I stayed in Vedado. This is not a scientific account but from my observation Havana is at least 40% black or what the USA would consider black.
That makes sense...considering how many enslaved Africans were taken there, I would assume the amount of African ancestry is pretty significant.
@@VivaBellabyXtina VERY SIGNIFICANT More Than Is Being Reported And Publicized!!! ✊🏾🖤
On my mother's side of the family I have Polish American, Afro American, Cherokee Native American Indian, Afro British West Indian (specifically Afro Barbadian), Portuguese, Puerto Rican (of Spanish origin), and Dutch ancestry. On my father's side of the family I Haitian (of Taíno, Syrian, Greek and French ancestry), Dominican (of Taíno origin). I self identify as a mixed race person, I only reveal my ethnicity when someone asks me what am I racially.
Nice mixture.
La historia es otra :
Las tres islas son diferentes, Cuba y la República Dominicana lucharon por su independencia, pero
Puerto Rico era España y los Puerto Riqueños durante 400 años fueron españoles de la una Provincia de ultramar La Nueva España y Nunca se Independizaron de España, fueron robados e invadidos por EEUU en 1898 y hoy son Colonia de EEUU que Sí quieren su Territorio pero No quieren a sus habitantes porque estos siguen siendo españoles con el mismo idioma, la misma cultura costumbres y religión, los reconocemos como hermanos aquí en Andalucía.
EEUU quieren el territorio pero VACÍO sin hispanos, NUNCA será un Estado de EEUU porque no quieren hispanos.
Puerto Rico debe votar por su independencia o por ser un gobierno Autonómico de España y pertenecer a la unión europea cuya moneda es el Euro.
Cuba y República Dominicana son hermanos en cultura pero tomaron su libre camino.
Santo Domingo fue casi abandonada para ir a conquistar a Mexico y Peru, y los Españoles y criollos que quedaron tuvieron que independizarse pero esa decisión estaba dividida entre la población.
Even we are similar, we are far from each other’s because of the sea; any sharing are because of traveling by canoes, ships y later by air. Our main shares was Spanish culture.
Puerto Rican in my own country with talking about this man
May you never have to suffer 6 decades under a one party rule..! Why did the mass immigration of Cubans only begin after 1959? No matter what government they had prior to 1959, Cubans never had such large immigration.
This is such an Interesting video. Well done! proud of being Dominican.

Cubans and Puerto Ricans Dominicans we are cousins ✊🏼

Hi. Any chance you could turn the auto captions on for this video? Thanks!
Sería buena una unificación de las tres....un sólo pais.
Cada Antilla tiene su propia cultura que tuvo unos orígenes parecidos pero sus variantes con las influencias y los distintos grupos de africanos (A PR se trajo sobre 40 grupos) crearon culturas propias.
Nos parecemos pero cada cuál somos únicos.
P.D.
La música es amplia y no se dice "Agüinaldo"... Es aguinaldo y tiene una gran variedad de vertientes, igual la plena, igual la bomba... De aguinaldos hay variedad de seis y otras variantes.
Great video
Love it nice video
I ❤ them 🇨🇺🇩🇴🇵🇷 Tina & I be having these fantasies going to 🇨🇺,🇩🇴, & 🇵🇷 everyday I've been to 🇵🇷 never been 🇩🇴 nor 🇨🇺 . I'm accepting to interact with them I dance with an tall handsome Afro-Dominican who I used to have a crush 10 years ago month before my 20th bday May will be 10 years I met an handsome tall Afro-Dominican I asked him does he like my nails in spanish & He said si 😂😂 He was my 1st 🇩🇴 crush
How u forget gente de zona
Cuba tiene una gran influencia de Yoruba. I like the Cuban rap trío, the Orishas... And of course, Celia Cruz is my favorite singer.
Yea, I've always heard they have a lot of Yoruba influence!
Yeah that santería is from the Yoruba. I hear some of those lyrics that Celia Cruz and other artists shouting cabio sile mi Changó, oye mi Changó, ochun mene and Yemayá..... Many Puerto Rican artist like Héctor Lavoe has a song called para ochun. In my opinión one of the greatest congueros out of Cuba who is also big in the lucumi culture the one and only Mongo santamaría. I love those Yoruba African words along with the Spanish lyrics.....
No offense honey as I truly appreciate and stan all the work you put into this video but I felt like you rushed a little when it came to the Puerto Rican part. I feel like you could’ve added in some more information like la música del campo, Ms. Olga Tañon, Gilberto Santa Rosa etc. but again good video nonetheless.
Yea, somebody else commented that as well 😩 idk why it seemed it seemed I couldn't find as much detailed information online when it came to P.R. However, I will be uploading an interview with a Puerto Rican from the island tmrw and discussing Puerto Rican history and current events 😊
VivaBella by Xtina Oh cool! I just subscribed so I will be watching your upcoming video. Pero you know how we are... so prideful and that goes for all of us 🇵🇷🇩🇴🇨🇺 hahaha. But honestly I felt a sense of pride learning about Cuba and your homeland like if they were also my homes. It’s kind of hard to explain lol but I feel like you understand me. Well again thank you so much for the content! I wish you the best and hope you stay safe mija. Much love from San Juan.

This is technically called the Confederación Antillana.
almost forgotten legacy in the Caribbean. Keep spreading that hidden knowledge that needs to be brought back to life

Don't forget about Ecuador and Peru
Those country’s are in South America
@@parislee254 So are Colombia and Venezuela
I know. Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, etc are also considered part of the Caribbean however for the purpose of this video I only focused on the islands.
@@kem1233 yea, I know many other areas are Caribbean influenced. I didn't know Mexico was that close to Cuba! But yea I just focused on the three islands for this video.
Maybe I'll do another one incorporating the rest of the Spanish Caribbean
The history is the same throughout all of the islands
Yes and no
Cuban bread isn't Cuban lol. It was made in Tampa Florida by a Sicilian. It's called Cuban bread because it is famously used to make Cuban sandwiches witch are from Tampa as well made by Cuban field workers. Aguinaldo isn't a type if music. It's Christmas carlos or Puerto Rican traditions sung in poetry form usually in a type of Jibaro music style of seís and décima. Puerto Rico isn't credit for salsa music. It was developed in NYC by Cubans and Nuyoricans along with Boogaloo, Latin house, freestyle, and Latin rap. Not giving a comment as anything negative. Just sharing some knowledge with you. Dembow isn't really a type of genre of its own. It's a subgender of reggaeton. The dembow is just louder and faster. One person I thought you should have included is Johnny Pacheco. A Dominican who is credit for some influence into salsa music.
Gotcha, thanks for correcting that 👍🏽
Charanga is also another fantastic music genre from Cuba. For example, listen to groups like Orquesta Broadway.

I was born in Cuba some 70 years ago. Don't fall for the Fidel, Socialist propaganda. Batista saved Cuba from been Socialist almost right after the Russian revolution and then again some years later with a second cope. Batista was call a dictatorship but unlike most dictators, Batista was good to the Cuban population, only prosecuting those Socialists that kept trying to toke over the island. Batista brought great progress to Cuba, to the point that at that time, the cuban peso was equal to the dollar in value. He made great deals with the U.S. that favored the cuban economy and made Cuba the number one nation in all the spanish speaking world. Yes, better than Mexico and Spain. That''s how good Cuba was. The first telephone system that you call dial direct to a house was implemented in Cuba before the U.S. had it. Car, railroad connecting the whole island, the very first split screen shown in TV was done in Cuba by TV techs and then brought to the US. Batista was good for Cuba
