Preferred term

national recovery  

Definition

  • The United States is geographically very resilient to large-scale disasters that directly impact the country. Unlike countries such as Japan or the Philippines, where the entire country is impacted by a disaster such as a typhoon, very few incidents have that kind of physical impact on the United States.
