well what would happen if it was a major eruption and if it was even bigger like then one back in 79 AD then a lot more destruction would happen towns would be whipped out, people would probably die (if they didn't have warning or did not evacuate in time) and it would just be chaos for them.

What would happen if a volcano erupted on Antarctica?
All would be fine and no one would die at all :)
Why people still live near Mount Vesuvius even though it may erupt again?
There already is a city near Mount Vesuvius: Naples. Naples has been there since long before anyone knew Mount Vesuvius was dangerous. The land around Mount Vesuvius is desireable because the volcanic soil is very fertile and excellent for growing crops.
What would be the short term impacts if Mount Vesuvius erupted today?
Death, loss of some Italian economy and loss of even more money (no tourism, disaster, aid). Still in the short term would be Italy begging the EU for more financial and humanitarian aid, Germany would get angry. Possible long-term effect: WW3. Thankfully, though, it's dormant.
Which cites was not damaged by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius at all?
It Was Rome. Because It Only Erupted 100 miles per hour, Neraly 2,000 Degrees So It Would Be Basically Impossible For It To Touch Rome :P
Had mount vesuvius erupted before?
People were getting on with there daily business then suddenly there was a minor earthquake followed by another people went inside there houses and held children and valuables close. The people in Herculaneum went to the boat houses but most of the men stayed on the beach. None of the towns could see the warning signs: minor earthquakes and streams and wells to dry up. Around noon Vesuvius erupted.
What was the type of damages from the eruption of mount vesuvius?
When it erupted in 79AD it covered 65 acres of land and killed 25,000 people. It is still active today with 3 million people living below. If it erupted today the damage would be much greater.

What would you do if Mount Vesuvius erupted and you were there?
Today millions live around it and there isn't much you could do if it blows up like it did in 79AD. The ash cloud covered everything in the area within 7 minutes. It changed the coastline and buried 65 acres and 3 cities. When you are there today you don't think about the fact you are near an active volcano. I was there and didn't worry about it.

Why is the Vesuvius regarded as the most dangerous volcano today?
Mount Vesuvius still has the potential to produce large, explosive eruptions similar to the one that destroyed Pompeii in the year 79. The population surrounding Vesuvius now is much larger than it was 2,000 years ago. An eruption today would put millions of people in danger.
