Dominica is an island nation located in the Windward Islands of the Eastern Caribbean, with Roseau as its capital. The country is often nicknamed "Mero", a nickname derived from its aboriginal culture that celebrates the beauty of nature. With an area of 751 square kilometers, Dominica is known as the "Nature Island of the Caribbean" for its volcanic landscapes, tropical rainforests and ecological purity.
The island is home to the world's second largest boiling lake, 365 rivers and waterfalls, and three national parks listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Unique volcanic black sand beaches, coral reefs and whale habitats make it an ecotourism destination. Dominica's Citizenship by Investment Program has attracted the attention of global investors.
