Breaking News: Chilean Earthquake Rocks Bricktainia

Just yesterday morning, as almost everyone knows, a massive 8.8 magnitude shook Chile, and the Pacific. Along with Hawaii, we turned on our sirens at 11:45 am EST, waiting for the worst. We had announced a state of emergency and advised for eveyone to head to high ground. At 1:02 pm, the first of 4 moderate Tsunamis struck the Southeastern coast of Bricktainia. No major damage but the water did get about 400 yards onto the coast flooding Port Bricktia with only 5-9 inches of water. No property or buildings were flooded, and we had survived the first round. The three others were worse and went in a good 800 yards into the southern coast. Port Bricktia had gotten a total of 16 inches and Studlanta 2 in the southern parts. Amazingly, Taiyo Shima only had 6-10 inches of flood water throughout all 4 tsunamis. Thankfully, no lives were taken in the tsunamis, though 5 were injured. The Lake Ellis area got 1 inch of flood water, However the worst was Southeast of Patch lake with 26 inches, though it's quite good that that is the least populated area of Bricktainia. Some assistance on rebuilding would be appreciated near Port Bricktia. The flood gates in the area have been released and the most standing water in all of Bricktainia is 15 inches, on the southeastern side of Patch Lake.
