The 2008 Sichuan earthquake was a deadly earthquake, and occurred on May 12, 2008, killing an estimated 68,000 people. The earthquake was also felt in nearby countries and as far away as both Beijing and Shanghai where office buildings swayed with the tremor. It was the deadliest earthquake to hit China since the 1976 Tangshan earthquake. It is the 21st deadliest earthquake of all time. Strong aftershocks, some exceeding magnitude 6, continued to hit the area even after the main quake, causing new casualties and damage. The central government announced that it would spend 1 trillion yuan over the next three years to rebuild areas ravaged by the earthquake.
