Summary

On 11 March 2011, a force-9 earthquake jolted the seabed 66 kilometres due east of Japan. Within 20 minutes, a black tsunami wave 14 metres high rolled in from above the epicentre. While struggling with the unfolding destruction, Japan had to cope with a third calamity -- the malfunctioning of a nuclear-power complex near the town of Fukushima
