Haiti

Decades of dictatorship and coups have left Haiti the poorest nation in the Western hemisphere. A U.N. peacekeeping force has struggled to contain political and gang violence. The country is frequently hammered by hurricanes. A massive quake in 2010 killed over 200,000 people and left more than 1 million homeless.
