if they new about so they could be more prepared
It could have had better public infrastructure, building codes and government.
Yes, If the buildings in Port au Prince had been built to a standard which could withstand earthquakes they would not have collapsed in the earthquake and fewer people would have been hurt or killed.
Haiti's earthquake was not strong enough to produce a tsunami. The earthquake caused a lot of destruction in Haiti, but that was largely because the buildings in Haiti had not been designed to withstand earthquakes. The earthquake in Haiti had its epicentre on LAND not in the ocean. Thus there was no sea floor movement associated with the earthquake which could have produced a tsunami.
No, the Haiti earthquake that occurred in 2010 was not successfully predicted. Earthquakes are generally unpredictable in terms of timing and location, as current scientific methods are not able to accurately forecast them with precision.
As of now, the current death toll from today's earthquake in Haiti is still being assessed by authorities. The situation is evolving rapidly, and it may take some time to determine the exact number of casualties.

No specific warning was issued before the Haiti earthquake on January 12, 2010. Earthquakes are challenging to predict, so advanced warnings are typically not possible. However, seismic monitoring and preparedness measures can help mitigate the impact of such events.
If you were not prepared for an earthquake several things could happen. 1) sometimes the earthquake wont be that bad because it hit in somewhere else and all you got the little rumbles and thats only because the earthquake wore out. 2) If an earthquake hit where you was at you could get lucky and dont get injured at all, you can be very injured or you can be killed. 3) If the earth quake is very falal and it wipes out everything you will probaly be homeless and poor because you dont have any food or money.
