A 9.0-magnitude earthquake at sea rocked Japan, causing a massive tsunami with waves up to 30 feet high. The quake happened when one of the earth's plates slid under another, displacing a large amount of water, which caused the tsunami.
Damage from fire and flooding was extensive. The death toll as of March 12 is still uncertain but is over 10,000.
