It is difficult sometimes to imagine the damage that a natural disaster such as an earthquake can do - especially when you do not know the place(s) where the earthquake has happened. So, here is a before and after shot of the Presidential Palace in Haiti - as it was before the earthquake of 11 January 2010. Remember that this will be one of the more secure and well built structures on the stricken island.

This is just too terrible.
Such a sad event, it is true the poorer countries seem to have the major disasters.
One thing that amazes me about these pictures (especially the top one) is that such a dirt poor country where people literally bake dirt to give their kids to eat for bread, has such a grand palace where the leader lives. I've seen and heard the news about the earthquake. What a devastating thing to happen.
