This is one of my dream destinations. I have friend that have been to the Dominican republic and say it is fantastic, but I had no idea that Spanish was the first language.

Apparently the Dominican Republic was the first European settlement in America. This is from Wikipedia:

Quote:

The Dominican Republic is the site of the first permanent European settlement in the Americas; its capital Santo Domingo was also the first colonial capital in the Americas. It is the site of the first cathedral, university, European-built road, European-built fortress, and more.
