There have been a number of "famous" or perhaps "infamous" Chilean earthquakes, including the 1960 Valdivia Earthquake, which with a magnitude of 9.5 was the largest ever recorded by seismometer.
Another was the earthquake that occured in February 2010 shortly after the devestating Haitian earthquake of January 2010.
