Because they built wooden frame houses to withstand the earthquake, funnily enough, fire often comes with earthquakes.....
The Kobe earthquake was extremely strong. It caused an awful lot of damage and many people were devastated with the terrible damage. The strength was so strong that it caused the roads to crack, bulidings to collapes, things to fall aparts and much much more!

Alot of damage because the people said so what lets hurt our land.
Approx. 6400 people died in the Kobe earthquake most suffocated or were burnt to death in the flames that spread through Kobe on the 17th January 1995. So far the amount of people that have died in the Japanese earthquake is 10,000 people.
Because it was a powerful, shallow earthquake.
people in Kobe can prepare by getting protective gears in school which they have done. Rebuild houses and building to make them more earthquake resistant and to make sure there is not fault in anything so it does not cause things such as fires!

the magnitude was 7.9 so what do you think the damage was like?
Fires spread rapidly in the Kobe earthquake due to ruptured gas lines, damaged electrical systems, and the collapse of buildings with flammable materials. The earthquake's shaking also made it difficult for emergency responders to access affected areas quickly.
Liquification is the conversation of a solid or a gas into a liquid. Christchurch suffers so much damage from liquification is cause the type of soil and soil arrangement in the regieon.
its not really after the steakhouse rather his parents loved Kobe steak so much they named him after it.
you can try to build under ground walls with won't stop a earthquake but it will slow down the earthquake so it will weaken the earthquake. ?
