and was exposed several times, throughout its long

history, to destruction at the hands of the Philistines,

Assyrians and Persians and was struck two times by

devastating earthquakes, in 551 AD. and 573 AD.

and flourished early in the 17th Century under the

reign of Prince Fakhereddine and by active trade with

Europe.

The scenario is prepared for the city of Sidon only, but in the event of

earthquake strength 7 degrees on the Lebanese coast, as happened in the

year 551, all coastal cities will be affected and therefore the devices must

intervene in all the core cities. Therefore, it is important in this exercise, be

taken into consideration can not bring in resources from other cities in
