Hypothetical Black Swan Event

What would happen to the bitcoin network during a solar flare black swan event? I read that major solar flares which threaten our electrical network are estimated to occur 1 to 12% every decade and most likely during the solar maximum. Assuming a major solar flare event happens, it could disrupt a lot of the electrical infrastructure and disrupt internet cable connections between continents. How does the bitcoin protocol respond to such an event if different continents are disconnected for months?
