The earthquake was caused by a thrust fault, meaning the two affected plates overlapped each other rather than drawing apart.
The 'plates' underground 'smack' into each other causing the Japan earthquake.
The north-eastern area of Japan was the most affected by the 2011 earthquake. Tremors were felt further south than Tokyo, which is in the middle of the main island. Most of the population lives along the coast, though, and the epicenter was off the north-east coast. Japan lies in an earthquake zone, so they have had earthquakes all over the country at different times. The two other large ones, 1995 and 1923, both happened in the center of the country near Tokyo.
It allowed the leadership of affected countries to take aggressive actions against other countries without the input from the people of those affected countries. And because the countries with totalitarian regimes were run from the top down, the people in those countries could not object to the leadership's actions.

The tsunami began with a 8.9 earthquake that hit all of Japan. That caused the tsunami. Nearly all of Japan was hit. Other countries were hit too.

The Iwate-kun prefecture, Miyagi-kun prefecture were destroyed and others were affected.
