The earliest forms of national disaster management can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where communities developed rudimentary responses to natural disasters, such as floods and earthquakes. For example, the Code of Hammurabi in ancient Babylon included regulations for rebuilding homes after disasters. Similarly, ancient Rome established systems for urban planning and emergency response to mitigate the impacts of fires and other hazards. These early practices laid the groundwork for more organized and systematic approaches to disaster management seen in modern times.

Urban areas are more likely to flood than rural areas because they typically have more impervious surfaces like concrete and asphalt, which do not absorb water like natural vegetation in rural areas. Additionally, urban areas often have poor drainage systems that can become overwhelmed during heavy rain events. The increased population and development in urban areas can also lead to more runoff and higher flood risk.
