Haitian earthquake, 2010
I got this information from the research of Amanda
The earthquake occurred January 12, 2010. It is estimated that over 30,000 building were either destroyed or servery damaged. It also caused about 8 billion in damage to the country. It was already the poorest country in the Western hemisphere. A little under 300,000 homes were destroyed or servery damaged, as well as about 80% of its schools and over half of government buildings. It is also estimated that over 100,000 people were killed as a result of this horrific event.
