Israel experiences earthquakes due to its location along the complex tectonic boundary of the Dead Sea Transform fault system. Historically, the region has seen numerous earthquakes, with significant events recorded over centuries. While the exact number of earthquakes is difficult to quantify, the Israel Geological Survey notes that the country experiences minor tremors regularly, with major earthquakes occurring approximately every few hundred years. The most notable historical earthquakes date back to ancient times, further emphasizing the region's seismic activity.
The 2009 Sumatra earthquakes, twin earthquakes that struck West Sumatra, Indonesia, resulted in the deaths of over 1,100 people.
The number of deaths from California earthquakes varies by event. Major earthquakes like the 1906 San Francisco earthquake resulted in thousands of deaths, while more recent earthquakes have caused fewer casualties due to improved building codes and early warning systems.
Why do the areas along the ring of fire experience many volcanic eruptions and earthquakes?
Yes. There are numerous volcanoes in Asia, and many parts of the continent are frequented by earthquakes.
Israel covers 22,072 square kilometers.

If you have ever felt an earthquake you will know they exist. Billions of people have felt earthquakes and many millions of people have been killed by earthquakes. Buildings collapse in many earthquakes. Earthquakes leave plenty of evidence and witnesses behind them that they happened.
Between 3000-4000
Earthquakes hardly ever happen in the middle of plates because the is no fault-line to move. The most common earthquakes in the middle of plates are because of Volcanoes.
From 1680 to Jan. 12-11, there have been 65 earthquakes. Sorry, couldn't find any for the rest of 2011 or 2012.
Many nations have attacked Israel, but only two nations ever destroyed it (temporarily): Babylon Rome
There were many things listed, mainly pork, eagles.
The 2009 Sumatra earthquakes, twin earthquakes that struck West Sumatra, Indonesia, resulted in the deaths of over 1,100 people.
Yes many earthquakes are destructive
Nobody knows how many earthquakes can happen in a year because you cannot predict earthquakes. :)
their has been 6 earthquakes
I think 14 earthquakes
