How can a certain area suffer more damage in earthquake?
A certain area might suffer more damage in earthquakes. It is because that area might be near the epicenter.
Why did Japan suffer a tsunami?
The earthquake was in the ocean which shook the water on top and crashed onto Japan. For more info go to CNN.com/Japan earthquake.

What stresses and strains does a country suffer in a war?
in a war people may suffer a lot. there might b losses of a family member. there could be no food,no clothes, and many more things
Which area would likely suffer the most damage from magnitude 6.8 earthquake?
An area with older, unreinforced buildings close to the epicenter of the earthquake would likely suffer the most damage. Additionally, areas with loose, saturated soil such as coastal regions or riverbanks could experience increased liquefaction and ground shaking, leading to more severe impacts.
What kind of structures suffer the most severe damage from a earthquake?
Unreinforced masonry buildings, soft-story buildings, and buildings with weak foundations are among the types of structures that can suffer the most severe damage during an earthquake. These structures are more vulnerable to collapse or extensive damage due to their lack of structural reinforcement or design flaws that make them susceptible to ground shaking.
How much money did Chile get from the earthquake?
well, because Chile is a rich country, and only 717 died in the earthquake, they probably got less than 10million, but the haiti earthquake is far more damaged, and haiti is one of the poorest country, so there houses were less developed
When was The More You Suffer created?
The More You Suffer was created on 2003-04-22.
Why would an earthquake be more devastating in a country that rarely gets serious earthquakes?
First world countries or regions that are earthquake prone tend to have very strict building regulations so that earthquake resistant designs and construction techniques are employed in the design and construction of buildings and other infrastructure. These regulations are also strictly enforced. Countries where earthquake are rare are unlikely to require the results of seismic activity to be considered in the design and construction process (except in the most sensitive of buildings e.g. nuclear reactors) as this is more expensive and is considered to not be a significant enough risk to warrant the additional expense. As such in the unlikely event that a large earthquake did occur in the country where they were rare, it would do significantly more damage as the structures were not designed to withstand earthquakes. Also earthquake prone regions will have an emergency response prepared in the event of a major earthquake that will be well practised. The emergency response in a country with low earthquake risk will be less well prepared as they will concentrate their training on dealing with other more likely scenarios.
Why was haiti earthquake so important to the US?
cause USA want to get more attention by helping other country's alex brewer
What is the difference between a 5.0 earthquake and a 6.0 earthquake?
The earthquake magnitude is a measure of the energy released during an earthquake. The scale is logarithmic, such that a magnitude of 6.0 releases about 32 times more energy than a magnitude 5.0 earthquake, and in turn more than 900 times more energy than a magnitude 4.0 earthquake.
