The Sticktropolans were used to quakes: the first one, a 1.3, hit in 1954. another followed 27 years later, this time a 3.5. But this violent quake rocked the city to the point that many thought it would every building would fall. while most of the boroughs escaped major damage, The Downs saw significant Damage, as many abandoned buildings collapsed or burned. there were hundreds of injuries, but thankfully no casualties.

Human influence
The December 2022 Alliance Between The Sticklands and The Codrasan Empire saw the introduction of Humans to The Sticklands. Despite the fact that technology hasn't quite caught up in The Sticklands, Many Humans from the empire have taken up Residence across the country. Sticktropolis was especially affected, as most Humans have chosen to live there. Modern Cars are not adaptable to the Streets of Sticktropolis, so many Humans have brought older cars to traverse the streets. in addition, secondhand transit equipment, Such as Subway and EL cars, have been put into service alongside the aging STA (Sticktropolis Transit Authority) Trains. Human Foods, previously unheard of in The Sticklands, are now commonplace in most boroughs (especially Culturetown). Overall, Humans have had a Positive Impact on not just the city, but The Nation as a Whole.
