Black people account for about 95%, and mulatto and white descendants account for 5%. -Human geography

According to the earthquake location and focal mechanism published on the website of the US Geological Survey, the earthquake in Haiti occurred in the left-lateral strike-slip fault of the "Enrichi-Bajiaoyuan" fault, which is similar to the San Andreas fault in California, USA, and bears about 7 mm plate movement every year. An earthquake with a magnitude of 7 on the Richter scale may trigger aftershocks one after another within several months to several years, some of which will be higher in magnitude, leading to further expansion of losses. -further elaboration on the plate, and the tsunami caused by the earthquake can be launched again.

There is also a cold wave and heavy snow in the south this year.

About the influence of climate zone, geographical location (coastal and inland), topography, climate, vegetation and surrounding topography on this cold wave, etc.
