High and rough because it has many different characteristics
Japanese have one of the highest because earthquakes happen there frequently. So no Japan does not.
An areas earthquake -hazard level is determined by past and present seismic activity
Earthquake-Hazard Levels are the likeliness of earthquakes occurring in certain regions.
It was a 9.0 level earthquake
An earthquake hazard level is a measure of the potential threat posed by earthquakes in a specific area. It takes into account factors such as the frequency, magnitude, and geological characteristics of earthquakes in that region. This information helps to assess the level of risk and inform disaster preparedness and mitigation efforts.
They measure it with a special instrument called seismograph.

The state of California, particularly the San Andreas Fault in Southern California, has the highest earthquake hazard level in the continental United States. Other areas with significant seismic activity include the Pacific Northwest and Alaska.
Earthquake hazard refers to the potential for ground shaking, surface rupture, ground displacement, and other associated effects that can result from an earthquake event. It represents the probability of an earthquake occurring in a specific area and the level of damage it can cause to people, buildings, infrastructure, and the environment. Understanding earthquake hazard is crucial for developing effective mitigation measures to reduce the risk and impact of earthquakes.
