Brodie Altiere- Dominican Republic


          The culture of the Dominican Republic is metropolitan. The Dominican was the first place settled by Spanish people in the new world. There diseases wiped out most of the Taino Indians this triggered the settlers to import African slaves, After the Haitian liberation of the entire island, slavery was abolished and free blacks and mixed flooded the island. The upper class was the Spaniards and they got the best education. The middle class were the Mulattos who didn’t get the same level of education as the Spaniards did and weren’t very wealthy.
