Wow, so many would think why do I care, about an eartquake in acountry so far…like Peru…well…I am here just to inform XD…what happened yesterday,
after a silence of 20 years, an eartquake, hited Peru…Lima, Ica…and other parts of my country…here is the information:

Well…yesterday the nation of Peru…suffered to succesive eartquakes, one of 7, 7 and the other 7,5, in the…in just minutes…in the personal, I didnt feel it, I was watching Seinfeld, and the ground started moving, and well…all the dog panicked, the people, started to scream, and then BROOOM….I had to go outside the house; the people, started to gather in the park, praying, and screaming…that wasnt my case…XD…then it ended…and the sirens started to …unmm well I heard sirens…and our President Alan Garcia Perez XD…declared that we were in state of emergency color RED…meaning that all the personal with knowledge of medicine, and things like that must report to the nearest hospital…and my mother works, in one so I have to go to too XD…while I was walking in the streets and watching the people, I runed into a friend that live in “Callao”, a place that have to been evacuated, because, there was a possibility of TSunami…O.o…his family was in shock, but I couldnt do a thing, cuz I had to go to the neares hospital…Only to spend my night there…Yawn…bored…
this eartquake, killed 47 people, 220 injured, a church destroyed with people inside…and a tsunami..incoming.. I dont think it was that terrible, but thanks to this eartquake, our chances of having another one, and more powerfull is there…XD…so that it..kitsune with the news HAHAHAHA

.Well thats it XD

Considering the level of earthquake it sounds like it could've been much much worse.

I like how your country's state of emergency colors actually mean something, whereas in the US it's just jibberish

Yeah…but In other parts of the country, there are having more problems…just now in the news, they said, that many buildings are collapsing…U.u…and yeah…our color siistem, is usefull, we have green alert and red alert, thats al n.n

Earthquakes cause so much damage, yet are so damn interesting.

There's just something about an earthquake affecting a general area of population that interests me. The death and the anarchy is horrible, but how the buildings buckle and cope with ground movements and how in general a structure manages to survive a quake is the most interesting thing to me.

We had an earthquake where I live 6 months ago. It only lasted for about 10 secs. The worse it did was make my house shake a little.

Uhhh I have new information, the total of deaths till now is 314…and a lot more of injured…and the eartquake was 2 minutes long …. but the weird thing is that I didnt really feel it, it was…kinda cool…but when you know that it have caused so much destruction…well its just…..I dont know xD

kitsunesan
the eartquake was 2 minutes long ….

Earthquakes from 70's films last eight minutes. D:

hahahah I remember them….Beware with the Eartquake…*Shark like music*…and then the people screaming…XD

kitsunesan, I hope all remains calm for your Land.

Ate least in the capital, the people is calmed, but the citys destroyed…well..no…they need help, and we are giving them help, giving clothes, and things like that

Crap, that earthquake was supposed to hit New Mexico…

I wonder what I did wrong….

What the !!!…It was your fault all this time …T_T…XD

…Haha, fault! Amusing puns!

I read an article that said the 1994 Northridge earthquake lasted 10-20 seconds. When “The Big One” hits, it is said to last a few minutes.

I love Peru so much, I've studied the culture and historical artifacts immensely in the past year. I do hope everything is okay. Thank you for sharing the news.

well Ourr eartquake, was for minutes…and two in a row…uhhh…the deaths are 506 till now…they are still searching for bodies…the most damaged parts are Ica, Pisco, Chincha…the other places, are uncratched…and well thats it for now…
