2011

3 major things happened in 2011 in Japan, one is when they had that really bad earthquake, another one is when they had that tsunami and the nuclear meltdown. The earthquake japan had an 8.9 magnitude and it destroyed mostly everything, buildings, houses, it made the power go down,made the buses and trains stop working, and streets and it killed hundreds of people. The earthquake had atleast 100 after shocks.The earthquake was the worst earthquake japan had so far. Then another deadly natural disaster happened to japan and that was the tsunami that happened because of the earthquake happening. That killed even more people in japan, it was said in some news articles that the death toll was the highest ever recorded from the earthquake and tsnuami. But japan was somewhat prepared for these natural disasters that were happening it was said in some news articles as well. Then another horrible thing happened to Japan was the nuclear meltdown. People who lived near the nuclear poewer plants had to evacuate because toxins were going to be released in the air and that wouldn't be good for the people to be exposed to that. Even though Japan had faced many disasters they still seemed to pull through and fix what was damaged or thought to take years to fix. I think everything that happened to japan was really crazy I mean Japan has suffered 3 disasters that most places would be able to recover form at all. I also believe that Japan is a strong country that probably can get past anything if they put their minds to it and in these devastating situations they faced they did just that.
