Archy [21]

Panama is a country that is part of North America geographically, though politically it is put into the Central American region. It is a small country that is located on southernmost tip of the North American land mass. Panama is the country that is bordering the continent of South America on its south. The country is best known for the Panama Canal, connecting the Caribbean Sea (the Atlantic Ocean through it as well) and the Pacific Ocean, giving this country a great strategic importance.

Haiti is a country that is part of the Caribbeans. The country is located on one half of the biggest island in the Caribbeans, Hispaniola, sharing it with the Dominican Republic which occupies the other half of the island. Haiti has both good and bad location. Its location is good because it has nice weather all year long, it is between North and South America, and it is very attractive for tourists. The bad part is that the island is constantly on the way of the hurricanes, usually the most devastating ones, which often manage to cause enormous damage and bug life loss.
