Haiti is a Caribbean country that shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic. It is world-renowned for its resilient spirit, being the first independent nation in Latin America and the Caribbean and the first modern black-led republic.

Soup Joumou, a pumpkin soup once reserved for white masters during slavery, was adopted by Haitians as a symbol of freedom on their Independence Day in 1804.
