When the green flag is clicked, there are three variations. Set "number" to 23000000 and "Disasters Number" and "Disasters name" to 0. Meanwhile, define Population Block.

When it is 1,2,3, set "Disasters name" respectively to "Jiji Big Earthquake", "AD 536's historical event.", and "Great Tsunami in 3/11." When the green flag is clicked, run below codes forever:
