Tsunami warning systems are being used all over the globe. On an international scale, there are TWS set up for all the world's major oceans. For the Pacific Ocean, there are two TWS, one in Ewa Beach, Hawaii and one in Palmer, Alaska. The Indian Ocean Tsunami Warning System consists of three deep-ocean sensors and 25 seismographic stations that relay their information to 26 national tsunami information centers. The warning system for the North Eastern Atlantic, the Mediterranean and connected Seas (ICG/NEAMTWS) has locations in Portugal, Greece, Algeria, and Sicily. The Caribbean TWS has monitoring locations spread throughout the areas surrounding the Caribbean. There are also many regional TWS, but these systems tend to be slightly less accurate than the international ones and have a shorter warning time.
Hi, Paste this link into your browser on how tsunamis are detected: http://ioc3.unesco.org/itic/categories.php?category_no=140 It is on the International Tsunami Information Center site. !

Tsunamis have been documented throughout history, with notable events such as the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami which resulted in widespread devastation and loss of life. Historical accounts also mention tsunamis triggered by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides, highlighting the destructive power of these natural disasters throughout various regions of the world. Understanding past tsunamis helps in improving early warning systems and preparedness efforts to mitigate their impact.
The tsunami that hit Japan in 2011 mainly affected the northeastern coastal regions, including Fukushima, Miyagi, and Iwate prefectures. Cities such as Sendai and Fukushima were extensively damaged by the tsunami, leading to widespread destruction and loss of life.
Unfortunately that part of the world is considered to be third-world. They didn't have the technology or resources to have one.

Not really. Japan is one of the most tsunami prone countries in the world.
No. While it was very deadly, there have been others that were larger and more powerful.
at a place on earth
they helped :)

A tsunami is not restricted to one region, the may occur anywhere. Most commonly in regions that are prone to earthquakes.
