Something happened
Short-term responses and resultsEvacuation.Abandonment of the capital city.The British government gave money for compensation and redevelopment.Unemployment rose due to the collapse of the tourist industry.Long-term responses and resultsAn exclusion zone was set up in the volcanic region.A volcanic observatory was built to monitor the volcano.New roads and a new airport were built.Services in the north of the island were expanded.The presence of the volcano resulted in a growth in tourism.
Mount Vesivius did not erupt in 1991. Its last eruption was in 1944.
Kilauea's last eruption is still its current eruption. The volcano awoke from a short slumber on January 3rd of 1983 and has been erupting continuously since that time. The volcano has gone through several different eruptive phases which can be read about on the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory website provided through the United States Geological Survey.

The last Mt Saint Hellens Eruption was relatively short.

Its last major eruption was in 1883, ending in a colossal explosion that destroyed most of the island and created a huge wave that caused more devastation than the eruption itself. However, the volcano is still active and after a short dormancy started rebuilding itself.

The most important factor in determining the effects of a volcano eruption on the people, wildlife, and vegetation near the volcano is the type of eruption (which depends on the type of volcano). There are two basic kinds of eruptions and any volcano can erupt as some combination of these. The first type of eruption consists mostly of molten rock running over the surface of the Earth like a thick liquid. This kind of volcano often comes from the ocean floor and some of the most familiar examples are lava flows that occur in Hawaii. In terms of effects on people and animals, these lava flows usually move slowly enough that animals can get out of the way in time. But they are very hot and bury any vegetation (or houses!) in their path and often can start fires that are dangerous.

Well, the area becomes mostly ashy, but a while after the ash clears away, it makes GREAT farm ground. Of course, during the eruption, the ash and stuff is flying, so everyone clears out for a while. A short time after the eruption, you can tell it happened, because of the smell and ash. But a while later, you wouldn't even know.
I say volcanoes change the world quickly. When a volcano erupts it takes a short time for the lava to dry and it forms and island. Hawaii was made from a volcan eruption.

Generally a flat-looking volcano would be a shield volcano, but it is possible for a composite volcano to become shorter. During a particularly large eruption a composite volcano can collapse to form a bowl-shaped depression called a caldera. Examples include Mount Tambora and Mount Mazama. There are also complex volcanoes, which show characteristics of multiple volcano types and often have multiple vents. The island of Tenerife is such an example, as it is a shield that has several composite cones and cinder cones on it.
