Answer:
Haiti's population density
Haiti's weak government
Explanation:
On January 12, 2010, a 7.0-magnitude Richter earthquake struck the country, causing a series of injuries, homelessness and deaths. Several buildings collapsed, including the presidential palace of the capital Port-au-Prince.
According to the US Geological Survey, the earthquake occurred about 10 kilometers deep, 22 kilometers from Port-au-Prince. This first earthquake preceded two others of magnitude 5.9 and 5.5. This has caused great destruction in the Haitian capital region, it is estimated that half of the buildings were destroyed, 250,000 people were injured, 1.5 million people were left homeless and the death toll exceeded 200,000.
This earthquake has aggravated Haiti's social problems, several people are using the streets as housing for fear of another tremor and the consequent collapse of houses. It really happened on January 20th. This new earthquake occurred in the southeastern part of the country, just under 60 kilometers from Port-au-Prince, and toppled some of the buildings that had been shaken as a result of the Jan. 12 quake.
Drinking water, food and medicine are not enough to meet the needs of the population. With this scenario, a wave of looting occurred in the country, as well as clashes over food purchases.
