Japan builds Buildings that are made to withstand earthquakes. These buildings are usually apartment buildings or Important buildings to protect citizens. (ignore the last answer)
P.S. they also build water walls to protect from flooding
hope it helped!
It is a typical tradition these days in Japan to build flexible houses and tall buildings.
A flexible house may sway a bit and depending on the height of the house/building one can add certain movable counterweights at top.
It is proven all over the world that typical brick buildings crumble and fall down during a strong earthquake, where as a flexible building will sway but not fall down.
Several years ago Japan was hit with an earthquake. Since then they have installed sensors to forewarn of a similar event.

the earthquake that happened in japan, the earthquake caused a lot of damage then entered the sea that caused a terrifying tsunami.
A "large" earthquake can be a major or great earthquake, both of which can cause serious damage to people, animal life, and buildings.A major earthquake is one of magnitude 7 - 7.9 which can cause serious damage. A great earthquake has a magnitude 8.0 or greater which can completely destroy communities near the epicenter.The 9.1 magnitude earthquake that hit Japan on March 11, 2011, is an example of a very large or great earthquake.
the japanesse remember the kobe earthquake and prepare for others.
Earthquake damage is the damage to property and life from the ground vibrations during an earthquake. The Richter scale is one way to measure the scale of earthquake damage. For example, a magnitude of 5 is strong enough to damage weak buildings.
Almost all of Tokyo Japan had little damage after the March 11th 2011 earthquake.
