Mountains do not prevent earthquakes, in fact mountains were created by the occurrence of earthquakes.
after shocks can be deadly - sometimes as bad as the earthquake itself!
because since the earthquake shakes up the ground so much some extra waves come up which are called after shocks
· 7.0 magnitude · 10714sq miles (country) · Energy released close to the surface as shallow earthquake · After shocks shook crumbled buildings increasing damage
Technically, there is little you can do to prevent an earthquake. AN earthquake is absolutely harmless if you are not directly on the edge of a fault, it is man-made structures and natural occurrences like avalanches that make earthquakes dangerous. The solution to this is to simply stay away from tall structures or unsound physical features of the earth (like mountains or old forests.)
You can't because sciencetists can't prevent earthquakes nor can theypredict when the next one occurs.
there was 15 after shocks
As in most larger earthquakes there will be after shocks. Haiti was no exception.
there were 525 after shocks two weeks after the amin earthquake

No there has not "yet" been an earthquake in the Rocky Mountains. Although scientists believe that there will be an upcoming earthquake near the Rocky Mountains.

Yes, aftershocks can occur after a strong earthquake. These are smaller tremors that can happen in the days, weeks, or even months following the main earthquake. It is important to be prepared for potential aftershocks and take necessary precautions.
