How were Pompeii and San Francisco alike?

Answer 1

Pompeii was an ancient Roman city. It was completely destroyed by a volcanic eruption and ceased to exist afterwards. However, it was preserved by the volcanic chemicals, so it still exists as a monument sort. Point being, Pompeii was a city located near a volcano, or a dangerous geographic area.

San Francisco is a major city in the US, located in California. In 1906, it experienced a devastating earthquake that destroyed a large portion of the city (and bay area). A similar earthquake was experienced in 1989. San Francisco is expected to have another large earthquake in the next few years. San Francisco is located near the San Andreas Fault as well as the Hayward Fault, or, too, a dangerous geographic area.

Answer 2

They are both located on dangerous geology.
