Why do you think major earthquakes are more destructive now compare with those that occurred 100 years ago?

The earthquakes have not changed. But people have built more buildings as well as buildings that are more expensive in areas where earthquakes are common. Also better communication allows more people to become aware of damage from more earthquakes than they would have been aware of before, so it appears to people that more damage is happening than it would appear before even when the actual damage is identical. Remember the more people hurt in an event the more today's news services want to cover it.

Why do some areas of the world have more earthquakes than others?

Some areas have more earthquakes because they are located near tectonic plate boundaries where the Earth's plates interact and cause seismic activity. The movement of these plates can lead to the buildup of stress in the Earth's crust, which is released as earthquakes. Areas with more active faults are more likely to experience frequent earthquakes.
