Haiti had a severe earthquake. Its buildings were neither built to the Florida hurricane code nor the California earthquake code. As a result, the roofs were not securely attached to the walls. When the quake hit and the walls shook nothing made them steady. They buckled. The weight of the roofs made them collapse. Many people were killed. More were injured. Even more were made homeless and hungry. Chaos ruled.
