Haiti is a country in the Caribbean occupying the western part of the island of Hispaniola, characterized by rugged mountains, fertile valleys, and coastlines along the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.

📍 Haiti is a country located in the Caribbean Sea, occupying the western portion of the island of Hispaniola in the Greater Antilles. It shares the island with Dominican Republic to the east, and lies near Cuba to the northwest and Jamaica to the southwest.
Haiti has no other land borders beyond the Dominican Republic and is surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. Its terrain is largely mountainous, with rugged hills and valleys covering much of the country, along with some coastal plains.
Haiti’s location in the Caribbean has historically made it significant for trade, migration, and cultural exchange. Its geography has influenced settlement patterns, agriculture, and vulnerability to natural hazards such as hurricanes.

What is an ISO Country Code?

ISO country codes come from the international standard ISO 3166 created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). These codes are used globally in databases, aviation systems, banking, shipping, and international data systems to uniquely identify countries and territories.

ISO 3166-1 codes are the two-letter country codes such as US, FR, or JP. These are called Level-1 ISO codes.

Only ISO 3166-1 codes support flag emojis. Flag emojis are created by combining two Unicode regional indicator letters that match the country's ISO two-letter code.

ISO 3166-2 codes represent states, provinces, or regions. Example: US-AZ = Arizona CA-ON = Ontario Subdivision codes do not have flag emojis.
