The correct answer is B) Haiti often offers foreign aid to the struggling Dominican Republic.
The statement about the countries of Hispaniola that is FALSE is "Haiti often offers foreign aid to the struggling Dominican Republic."
Hispaniola was the name given by the Spaniards to the island that today is occupied by two countries: Haiti and the Dominican Republic. European explorer Christopher Columbus named the land "La Española" when their men landed on this island when he discovered America in 1492. Haiti is a poor country that has faced many political problems and economic struggles throughout its history.
Haiti is one of the poorest countries of Middle and South America and the Dominican Republic on the other hand is one of the wealthiest. Therefore Haiti is not able to provide foreign aid to “struggling Dominican Republic”, because it’s the other way around.
