The Dominican Republic, aside from being on the eastern part of Hispaniola (an island which it shares with Haiti), contains many small islands as part of a territory. There were two islands, Cabritos Island, that were in the Isla Cabritos National Park (Parque Nacional Isla Cabritos) on Lake Enriquillo. They were submerged by December 2011.) The other islands are on the Atlantic Ocean or Caribbean Sea (see map link to the right).[1][2]
