On January 12, 2010, Haiti was struck by a magnitude 7.0 earthquake, the country's most severe earthquake in over 200 years. Widespread damage resulted from the quake, with a majority of buildings collapsing due to poor structural design. The capital city was devastated. The Presidential Palace was badly damaged, with the second floor entirely collapsing onto the first floor; the Haitan Parliment building and the National Cathedral were also destroyed. Hundreds of thousands are believed dead with many more severly injured and without access to medical aid.
