The Correct  answer is C.

The Island of Hispaniola is the second largest island in the Caribbean, at 29, 237sq miles. Haiti occupies about 1/3 of the Island while the Dominican Republic controls the balance of the land.

Christopher Columbus claimed Hispaniola in 1492, declaring it  "the most beautiful island in the world".  It later became the launching base for the Spanish conquest of the Caribbean, as well as the American mainland. 

The western third of the island became known as Haiti in 1804 and while the remainder became known as the Dominican Republic in 1844.

uysha [10]

Answer:Each of us has the power, through our own choices and actions, to save American lives and rescue the most vulnerable among us.

That’s why we really have to do what we all know is right.  Every citizen is being called upon to make sacrifices.  Every business is being asked to fulfill its patriotic duty.  Every community is making fundamental changes to how we live, work, and interact each and every day, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see this going on long into the future, when this virus is gone and defeated.  Some of the things we’re doing now will be very good practice for the future, including for not getting the flu, which is very devastating also.  So some of what we’re learning now will live on into the future — I really believe that: shaking hands or not shaking hands; washing hands all the time; staying a little apart.
