Why did the tsunami in banda aceh happen?
A earthquake beneath the sea happened right next to Banda Aceh, this triggered a Tsunami. Banda Aceh was next to it so it got hit the worst. The waves were up to 30 metres high! You know the Tsunami in Japan? This wave was WAY bigger that one! How the Earthquake happened: There are these things underneath the ground that are called 'Plates' These plates are right next to each other. Because two plates got pushed together the pressure from that caused one to flip up (Put hands together so your middle fingers are touching one another and then push them together as hard as you can, eventually one of your hands/fingers will move upwards from all the pressure) I hope this helped you :)
