After the catastrophe was over, the only countries remaining on the map would probably be Padaski, Moon, Panthera, and a few others. All the others that hadn't been wiped out wouldn't have many people left.
...
The Moonians became very active online. Earlier, they had been complaining to everyone about how unreliable the underground shelter was, determined that they would die.
Some had knelt on the floor and prayed while others embraced one another.
Right now, they were all jumping up and down, and their faces were covered by tears of joy.
"Moon is amazing! I can't believe we actually survived that!"
"The IVE Extractors are so powerful! Hail the underground shelter! Hail Mr. Soan!"
"Mr. Soan has saved us all! We owe him our lives!"
"I've said some disrespectful things to Mr. Soan, and I want to apologize to him! I'm sorry, Mr. Soan, but you're right! I'm such an idiot! I hope you can forgive me!"
