Yes, Cambodia has experienced earthquakes, although they are relatively rare and usually of low magnitude. The country is not situated on a major tectonic plate boundary, which reduces the likelihood of significant seismic activity compared to neighboring regions like Indonesia or Thailand. However, minor tremors can occur, and there have been instances of seismic activity felt in parts of Cambodia, often originating from nearby countries. Overall, the risk of large earthquakes in Cambodia is considered low.
No, the Haiti earthquake in 2010 was not the strongest earthquake ever recorded. The strongest earthquake ever recorded was the 1960 Valdivia earthquake in Chile, which had a magnitude of 9.5 on the Richter scale.
Tsunamis can hit any location on earth that is close to a body of water and subject to earthquake activity. Cambodia barely missed the devastating 9.0 Asian earthquake and subsequent tsunami. See related link for Cambodia Tales Tsunami Discussion
No there has never been an earthquake with a magnitude of 10.0 that has ever been recorded. The largest recorded to date was the magnitude 9.5 earthquake that occurred in Valdivia Chile in 1960.
The youngest child to have ever been born during an earthquake is any newborn who is born during an earthquake. It is unlikely that this should ever change as all babies who are born, whether during earthquakes or otherwise, are all newborns.
Earthquake magnitudes are typically whole numbers, measured on the Richter scale. A magnitude of 12.5 would be unprecedented and beyond the highest levels recorded by seismologists. The strongest recorded earthquake, the 1960 Valdivia earthquake in Chile, had a magnitude of 9.5.

The earthquake "Shaanxi" in China in January 1956 is considered as the deadliest earthquake ever, with 820,000-830,000 fatalities.
There will never ever be an earthquake there.

The largest earthquake ever recorded in New Zealand was the Wairarapa earthquake in 1855, with an estimated magnitude of 8.2. It caused significant damage in the southern North Island and the northern South Island.
yes in 1985 there was an earthquake in Tasmania and it was 4.8
No, the humans of Earth have not yet recorded a 10.0 earthquake.
