The Commonwealth of Dominica is an independent English-speaking island state situated between the French islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe. It is a former British colony and a member of the Commonwealth of Nations (British Commonwealth) as well as the United Nations, the Organisation of American States (OAS), Caricom and other international organisations. It should not be confused with the Spanish-speaking Dominican Republic to which it has no ties. Dominica has a pleasant climate, particularly during the cool months from December to March. It is one of the most beautiful countries in the Caribbean. Covering an area of almost 800 square kilometres, it supports a population of more than 65,000, including about 3,000 of the last surviving native Carib people in the Caribbean. The Dominicans are regarded by many travellers as the friendliest people in the Caribbean. There is a strong currency - the Eastern Caribbean Dollar, which is tied to the US Dollar - and almost no crime.
The economy is largely based on agricultural exports including bananas, citrus fruits, coffee, cocoa, coconut products including oil, tropical fruits, fruit juices and copra. Other exports are fish and various manufactured products including rum, soap, and timber. Tourism is an increasingly important sector of the economy. The Government of Dominica has adopted a structured approach to economic development through a number of programs, among them its citizenship-by-investment program.
