Haiti is a Republic which has a population of 8,924,553 (2008), and shares the island with the Dominican Republic. The capital of Haití is Puerto Prince.
On the 12th of January 2010 the biggest earthquake in Haiti takes place after 240 years.
Experts say that this earthquake is equivalent to 200.000 kilos of dinamyte.
The earthquacke had a magnitude of 7,3 in Richter’s scale. The epicenter of the earthquacke was very close to the city, which caused a huge damage. Haití is maybe the poorest country of all America and so the damage was bigger than in The Dominican Republic which is part of the same island. Around 200.000 people died.
The European Union spends 229 milions in emergency and promises 200 milions more to help to reconstruct Haití.
Well I have to say that If one day I become a doctor I would like to help when such a disaster happens. I know it’s a very hard job but this would make me feel better and usefull.
