Liberia, officially the Republic of Liberia, is a country on the west coast of Africa, bordered by Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Côte d'Ivoire. Liberia, which means "Land of the Free", was founded as an independent nation by freed slaves from the United States. Recently it has witnessed two civil wars, the Liberian Civil War (1989–1996), and the Second Liberian Civil War (1999–2003), that have displaced hundreds of thousands and destroyed its economy.On July 26, 1847, the American settlers declared the independence of the Republic of Liberia.

Africa. It is called the Federal Republic of Nigeria. \n\nNigeria, one-third larger than Texas and the most populous country in Africa, is situated on the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa. Its neighbors are Benin, Niger, Cameroon, and Chad. The lower course of the Niger River flows south through the western part of the country into the Gulf of Guinea. Swamps and mangrove forests border the southern coast; inland are hardwood forests.\n\nbrownsluv --'White' man, and I'm thinking you mean southern 'white' man since that is where the 'n-word' came from, are no more 'ignorant' than any other geographical area of the USA. The n-word comes from the way Southerners said the word Negro. With the southern accent it came out  'negr' or 'ni**er' .  It really wasn't meant to be a 'bad' word. How ignorant YOU are.

well I can't tell you for sure, because there are lots of little hotels that wouldn't be found on line, but what I can tell you is, first your address doesn't make sense, Dakar is the biggest town in Senegal but Shell Dakar? I don't know what that means, also  Vincent is not a town in Senegal.  Now Praia is a town in the Cape Verde Islands which is rather close to Senegal and there is in Praia,  a B&B called Praia Maria.\n\nSo unless you can clear up the address problem I would have to say not there isn't a Praia Maria in Senegal, it's in Cape Verde.

Because of the politics. From my understanding, Haiti was/is war torn. People who want to travel who are not from there do not want to go to a country that has a lot of fightings and political warfare. not only that but D.R. has a lot of resorts predominately for tourists and great rates for them as well. I also heard that the D.R. accommodates the Carribean Cruise lines as well. my friend came back from one; they went to Haiti even though they thought they were going to go to the D.R. Not happy at all. People want to go where they have a feeling they are not going to be in the crossfire (and, if you have watch the world news, Haiti, back then, was not a place even for the Haitian people to be safe.) To my knowledge, the D.R. does not have a problem with that.

The Caribbean (Spanish: Caribe; French: Caraïbe; Dutch: Cariben) is a region of the Americas consisting of the Caribbean Sea, its islands (most of which enclose the sea), and the surrounding coasts. Located southeast of Northern America, east of Central America, and to the north and west of South America, the Caribbean is commonly reckoned as a subregion of North America.\n\nSituated largely on the Caribbean Plate, the area comprises more than 7,000 islands, islets, reefs, and cayes. The West Indies consist of the Antilles, divided into the larger Greater Antilles which bound the sea on the north and the Lesser Antilles on the east, and the Bahamas which are northeast of the sea. Bermuda lies much further to the north in the Atlantic Ocean and is sometimes included in the West Indies. Geopolitically, the West Indies are organized into 28 territories including sovereign states, overseas departments, and dependencies. At one time, there was a short-lived country called the Federation of the West Indies composed of ten English-speaking Caribbean territories.\n   \nPortal:Caribbean\nCaribbean Portal\n\nThe name "Carbbean" is named after the Caribs, one of the dominant Amerindian groups in the region at the time of European contact during the late 15th century. The analogous "West Indies" originates from Christopher Columbus' idea that he had landed in the Indies (then meaning all of south and east Asia) when he had actually reached the Americas. The Spanish term Antillas was commonly assigned to the newly discovered lands; stemming from this, "Sea of the Antilles" is a common alternate name for the Caribbean Sea in various European languages.

I think you are misspelling it, and it's not in Colombia...it's an island in the Carribean. They had a nasty volcanic eruption there about ten years ago, buried almost half the island.

B is the nearest correct answer. Western Africa was called both the Gold Coast and the Ivory Coast. Cote d'Ivoire is still a nation there.\n\nPortuguese ships rounded Cape Bojador in 1434, Cape Verde in 1445, and by 1480 the whole Guinea coast was known to the Portuguese. In 1482 Diogo Cão reached the mouth of the Congo, the Cape of Good Hope was rounded by Bartolomeu Dias in 1488, and in 1498 Vasco da Gama, after having rounded the Cape, sailed up the east coast, touched at Sofala and Malindi, and went from there to India. Portugal claimed sovereign rights wherever its navigators landed, but these were not exercised in the extreme south of the continent.\n\nThe Guinea coast, as the nearest to Europe, was first exploited. Numerous European forts and trading stations were established, the earliest being São Jorge da Mina (Elmina), begun in 1482. The chief commodities dealt in were slaves, gold, ivory and spices\n\nOH, FYI, the priestly class in India were the Brahmins.
