State of Emergency

A State of Emergency is a formal declaration that governments make during crises like natural disasters, civil unrest, or other emergencies. It temporarily grants authorities special powers to act quickly and efficiently, such as mobilizing resources, restricting movement, or implementing curfews, to protect public safety. This declaration helps streamline decision-making and ensures coordinated responses. While it may limit some individual freedoms, it is typically intended to restore normalcy and safety as swiftly as possible. The duration and scope of a State of Emergency vary depending on the situation and legal provisions.
