The Republic of Cuba consists of the island of Cuba (the largest and second-most populous island of the Greater Antilles), Isla de la Juventud and several adjacent small islands. Cuba is located in the northern Caribbean at the confluence of the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. Cuba is south of the eastern United States and The Bahamas, west of the Turks and Caicos Islands and Haiti and east of Mexico. The Cayman Islands and Jamaica are to the south. The national flower is Hedychium coronarium J. Koenig, most often known as "flor de mariposa" (Butterfly Flower) and the national bird is "Tocororo" or Cuban Trogon from the family of Trogonidae.[8] Cuba is the most populous insular nation in the Caribbean. Its people, culture and customs draw from several sources including the aboriginal Taíno and Ciboney peoples, the period of Spanish colonialism, the introduction of African slaves, and its proximity to the United States. The name "Cuba" comes from the Taíno language the exact meaning of which is unclear, but may be translated either "where fertile land is abundant" (cubao) or "great place" (coabana). The island has a tropical climate that is moderated by the surrounding waters; however, the warm temperatures of the Caribbean Sea and the fact that the island of Cuba sits across the access to the Gulf of Mexico combine to make Cuba prone to frequent hurricanes. Cuba's main island, at 766 miles (1,233 km) long, is the world's 17th largest.

Jun 18, 2010 - @wickywhite Cuba's dual currency is creating larger gaps between the rich and the poor. The people want to start "Living" and the standards are low. Citizens are not able to have free speech and are jailed for nothing. Richer Countries don't need to feel shame at all. Cuba's shame is they have kept their country held back due to their failed political plans. I think your ignorant and should learn more about Cuba.

Jul 3, 2010 - @americankid1210 your right... some americans don't even realize that is was their country who placed the embargo... cuba has no say in whether it gets taken off... so blame the states...

Jul 27, 2010 - F. Castro never wanted the embargo lifted . He very selfishly sees himself as a hero for despising the United States . Meanwhile , Cubans suffer , which is partly why the embargo was placed to begin with . A free Cuba would be getting all kinds of attention , love , recognition , and financial aid from the states . Infrastructure would be strong , people would be happy , and have access to consumer goods . Kind of like before Fidel , right ?
PrinceValiantThesnob Says:
Jul 27, 2010 - " Mi Moto Fidel " is a good book by Christopher Baker which does alot to explain the Cuban situation . After the fall of the Soviet Union , Russia stopped shoveling money into Cuba , which is another reason Cuba is hurting . Communism does not work ! Third world tyrannical nutjobs always blame the U.S. for their own shortcomings.( F. Castro , Kim Jung ill , H. Chavez etc. ) Hating the U.S. is not cool , never was cool , and is all played out .

Aug 23, 2010 - oh my god I went here and paid more then I paid for my trip to come home early because I got sick as hell the 2nd day there AND I had to wait 2 days for a flight back home which was HELL. Those were the worst days of my life I felt like kissing the ground when I landed back in Canada. and what the fuck is up with the no toilet seats in the airport?! fuck that trip was like going to hell...maybe it was just the hotel I stayed at though.
