In days long ago a good journalist would do some research and include that info in the article. Now it's just let's write a few paragraphs with a clickbait headline and hope Yahoo picks it up.

Google sez:
Last year, the Dominican Republic received a record-breaking 6.18 million visitors, which was a 3.9 percent increase compared to 2016. The main source market for the country's tourism was the United States, which made up more than two million of the Caribbean nation's total visitors.May 31, 2018
