Portuguese term or phrase: estado de calamidade, estado de emergência e estado de sítio (tradução)

For example: The government has declared sate of..., because of the aftermath of the last hurricane. There are other examples (for example in case of political insurrection). So, I would like to obtain the 3 states (calamidade, emergência e sítio) in English, because I don't know if those technical denominations exist in US. Equivalents expressions would be wellcome. Thank you.
