Being an island area, the earthquake gave rise to a tsunami( 海 啸)wave and spread to areas as far as SriLanka. The number of deaths is about 1,500 with more than 400 people getting injured. Rat Islands, Alaska Magnitude — 8.7, Date —April 02, 1965 This earthquake only happened inside water and all the losses were because of the tsunami waves caused by it. The quake gave rise to a huge tsunami causing a loss of thousands of dollars. The good news in this quake was that no human loss or injuries were reported in these islands. Bio Bio, Chile Magnitude — 8.8, Date — February 27, 2010 This quake happened to take the lives of more than 500 people. The tsunami caused by this quake added to the effects by forcing hundreds of thousands of people to leave their home, of which about 50 are still missing. The number of injured people reached a level of 12,000, thus making one of the worst earthquakes of the human history. Sumatra, Indonesia Magnitude — 9.1, Date — December 26, 2004 Having its name twice in the list, it is clear that Sumatra comes in the area that is most prone( 易于……的 ) to earthquakes. Just 3 months before the earthquake of 8.6 magnitude, this quake caused much more loss of life and wealth than the later one! The earthquake gave rise to a huge tsunami killing about 300 thousand people all around the countries of South Africa and South Asia. 1. T
