The 1906 San Francisco earthquake and the subsequent fires destroyed approximately 490 city blocks, which amounted to about 28,000 buildings. The fire, exacerbated by broken gas lines and water supply failures, consumed around 4.7 square miles of the city. This disaster resulted in significant loss of life and property, reshaping San Francisco in the years that followed.
"because of the plates they hit up against each other and made this earthquake. so it is a convergent earthquake " It Was Because Of the San Andreas fault, The pacific plate slid past the north American plate, the grinding caused the the earthquake, It Was a Transform boundary earthquake.

A regular land map will show landmarks and natural features such as mountains, plateaus, islands, etc. An earthquake map will show tectonic plate faults and earthquake danger zones.
An oceanic earthquake works almost similar to any earthquake on land. In an underwater earthquake, the seafloor moves, causing vibrations in the ground and shockwaves. When near land, these tremors can be felt. Depending on the magnitude and the type of plate boundary (convergent, transform or divergent), it can cause tsunamis.
In the continental United States the biggest earthquake was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906. It was magnitude 8.0 on the Richter Scale. The largest earthquake to hit any part of the USA was the 1964 Alaska earthquake measuring mag 9.2.
It happened in 1906.

An earthquake in the ocean is dangerous than on land because in the ocean if it occurs it can generate an earthquake which can cause more destruction than an earthaquake on land

i am a girl in 7th grade and i can tell u if ur country is rich build thoses rooms which can stand up for any earthquake or if u have good scientists that can help u for example that canwarn u are use scales to help u nmmange them. but,unfortnately u cant stop them they are natural feartures. thank u
Most earthquakes are under land. An earthquake is caused by tectonic plates shifting and/or colliding together.
In San Francisco county there is an ordnance saying that helicopters cannot do off airport landings. Because of this there are no heliports and/or places to land in San Francisco for the public to use. The only place to land in San Francisco for a helicopter to land is SFO.
cause they had bad land

that's called an earthquake.
They were introduced in 1906 and 1911
