Few tragedies have shaken the whole world as the recent earthquake that literally destroyed Haiti, already one of the poorest countries in the planet. To speak of Haiti, before January of 2010, was to think of something very singular: it was the second nation of the American continent to conquer its independence from a European power , by the hands of a group of slaves of African origin. Nevertheless, the country was always dominated by ferocious leaders and sanguinary dictators that impoverished it to the extent of transforming it in a place with an infrahuman level of life. In those circumstances comes one of the most potent earthquakes in the recent time, which ends up desolating it. The scarce infrastructure was turned into dust, crushing the lives of thousands of people. The substantial international help has been insufficient for a disaster of such a magnitude. The tragedy of Haiti is a tragedy of Humanity. Haiti, Island of Panic depicts, in an extraordinary way, an overwhelming catastrophe. Pocas tragedias han sacudido al mundo entero como el reciente terremoto que literalmente destruyo a Haiti, ya de por si uno de los lugares mas pobres del mundo. Hablar de Haiti, antes de enero de 2010, era pensar en algo muy singular: fue la segunda nacion del continente americano en conquistar su independencia de una potencia europea "en este caso Francia," a manos de un grupo de esclavos de origen africano. No obstante, el pais estuvo dominado siempre por feroces lideres y sanguinarios dictadores que lo depauperaron al grado de volverlo un sitio con un nivel de vida infrahumano. En esas circunstancias se presenta uno de los sismos mas potentes de los ultimos tiempos que termina por devastarlo. Su escasa infraestructura se hizo polvo, y debajo de ella quedaron atrapadas miles de personas que perdieron la vida. Haiti, isla panico plasma de manera extraordinaria una catastrofe mayuscula.
