"Weather."

Now, a few thousand years ago, we would have wondered what Gods we angered, and perhaps made an appropriate sacrifice to them.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Lack of Christian faith and pagan religions.

Before that, the Sun God must be angry.

Before that, the some damsel in the village did a curse and brought this upon the village itself.

Probably that the nation was being punished for turning away from God. We’re much more sophisticated now, though. /s
