McDermott’s Castle
McDermott’s Castle was constructed in 1184 by the Mac Diarmada dynasty on Castle Island, a small island in Lough Key, Ireland. Unfortunately, a lightning strike caused a fire that swept through the impressive fortress and ultimately led to its destruction. Rebuilt in 1235, the castle was offered at auction in 2018 for a projected $100,000.

In March of 2011, a tsunami with a magnitude of 9 hit the Fukushima region. The nuclear power plant in the area suffered meltdowns and released radioactive material, creating extremely hazardous conditions and necessitating a prompt evacuation. More than 300,000 people had to be moved, and it is expected that repairing the damage will take nearly 40 years.
