Karlson keeps the entirety of its civilians in an enormous megalopolis about halfway between the middle and edge of the country. The major flaw in this design was proven yesterday as most of the city is built along the fault line. A 7.7 richter scale earthquake rattled a good portion of the string of cities, causing many destroyed buildings, 156 deaths, 1936 nonfatal injuries, and 843 have turned up missing. Red Cross and similar services immediately pulled in, but the scale of destruction was massive and the members are spread too thinly to help everyone in the city. When interviewed on the disaster, Karlson's Parliament said that they "are definitely going to redesign the residential layout."
