Thousands dead in Zamastanian Earthquake

On Saturday a magnitude 8.3 earthquake occurred. Its aftershock has killed thousands of the residents living in Zamastan's Horseshoe Bay area. This is the largest earthquake to have struck Zamastan in 100 years. Sources say that around 2:08 PM a 8.3 magnitude earthquake occurred 84 miles north of Horseshoe Bay. The tremor caused significant structural damage and was felt heavily in Tofino. Shortly thereafter the Zamastanian Government declared a state-of-emergency in anticipation for predicted aftershock and a potential tsunami. These predictions came to fruition later in the day as a 4 meter tall tsunami struck hit the Costal Valley area. Two avalanches were also triggered by the quake on nearby climbing mountains and the aftershock took down numerous buildings. The death toll has been reported to be well over 1,000. The tremors could be felt many hundreds of kilometers away. On the evening of Saturday, president Lucas Brown announced stated in a social media post "The thoughts and prayers of our nation go out to all of the individuals effected by the horrible earthquake that has struck Zamastan. I cannot stress enough how upsetting this is to watch. The Zamastanians are resilient people and I wish them all the best in rebuilding. God Bless." It would seem that Brown was not the only world leader to give condolences. United New England, Sanctaria, Trive, and Gardavasque's leaders have all also commented on the tragedy in Zamastan at the time of writing this. The rebuilding process will be a long one as hundreds are now without a home. However, first responders are working tirelessly to save what they can.
