Cause- The Haiti earthquake was caused as the North American plate and
the Caribbean plate drifted along the Plantain Garden fault causing the
earthquake.(as show in the picture above)
Affect- Around about 3 million people in Haiti were affected by the earthquake.
Almost 170,000 dead bodies had been counted, 20,000 commercial buildings and 225,000 residences had been destroyed or collapsed all together.
Some of their landmarks were damaged and destroyed including the presidential palace which sufferd very heavy damage.
Communication systems, land, air, and sea transport facilities, hospitals, and electrical networks had been damaged by the earthquake, this also made it very hard to help and find the people that need treatment or health supplies.
People that had been helped where sometimes robbed and killed by others and most people were left homeless.
All in all you could say Haiti have been permanently affected by this, they will struggle to rebuild.
