Seventh... A little introduction of Dominica
The Capital of Dominica is Roseau. A person from Dominica is called Dominican.
The Commonwealth of Dominica which geographically lies between two overseas departments or "territories" of France: Guadeloupe to the North, and Martinique to the South, Dominica is sometimes referred to as "French Dominica" or by the nickname "The Nature Isle of the Caribbean" due to its seemingly unspoiled natural beauty in comparison to other isles in the region. Sometimes Dominica may even go by its pre-columbian name Wai'tu kubuli - "Tall is her body."
Dominica is a lush island of mountainous rainforests and plenty of rare exotic plants, animals and bird species. The isle of Dominica is one of the youngest islands in the Lesser Antilles, and is actually still being formed by naturally occurring geothermal and volcano-related activity. Dominica is currently heavily dependent on its tourism industry.
The name is pronounced "do-min-EE-ka" (IPA: /ˌdɒ.mɪnˈiː.kə/) with the emphasis on the third syllable, the name in Latin, means Sunday. It should not be confused with the Dominican Republic ("do-MIN-i-kun"), another Caribbean nation.
