On 27 February 2010 at 03:34 UTC−03:00, a Mww 8.8 megathrust earthquake struck off the coast of the Maule Region of central Chile. One of the most powerful earthquakes ever recorded, it lasted approximately three minutes and was felt across six Chilean regions, home to roughly 80 percent of the country's population. The earthquake, which became known in Chile as the 27F earthquake (Spanish: Terremoto del 27F), was the largest to hit the country since the magnitude 9.5 1960 Valdivia earthquake and the strongest worldwide since the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake. The earthquake triggered a tsunami with wave heights reaching up to 24.1 m (79 ft) that devastated several coastal towns in south-central Chile, causing the most severe damage at Constitución. Tsunami warnings were issued across 53 countries, and waves caused damage as far away as California and Japan. The disaster resulted in 525 confirmed deaths and 25 missing persons, left approximately 370,000 homes damaged, and generated a nationwide blackout affecting 93 percent of the Chilean population. Economic losses were estimated at US$15–30 billion. President Michelle Bachelet declared a state of catastrophe and deployed the military to the worst-affected areas.
