The date is March 11, 2011: A magnitude-9.1 earthquake rumbles the northeastern coast of Japan, the fourth largest earthquake in history. Following the earthquake, a tsunami of unprecedented heights swallows towns and cities in the Tōhoku Region, causing the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant to explode. Thousands of people are presumed dead, and hundreds of thousands are missing. Many citizens are displaced and homeless, destroying around 220 billion dollars worth of housing. All of Japan is in disarray, creating a newfound lack of trust in the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric Power Company, the owners of Fukushima Daiichi. Delegates will have to navigate the reconstruction of Tōhoku, and deal with the political, societal, and economic losses following Japan’s darkest disaster.
